Rishi Sunak is introducing emergency legislation to 'confirm' that Rwanda is a safe country for asylum seekers deported from the UK, after the supreme court blocked his plan. Addressing a Downing Street press conference, the prime minister said he would bring forward the new laws shortly and would be prepared to defy any judgment from the European court of human rights in Strasbourg if there were further attempts to stop Rwanda flights going ahead. 'I will not allow a foreign court to block these flights,' he said, arguing that the supreme court judgment had hardened his resolve for the Rwanda plan to proceed
