Senior Tories call for unity as Sunak battles to save Rwanda bill ahead of crunch vote

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

45% : The New Conservatives said that around 40 MPs - including former immigration minister Robert Jenrick and former home secretary Suella Braverman alongside senior MPs Sir Simon Clarke and Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg - gathered to discuss the bill.
42% : But in a sign of the challenge facing the prime minister, moderates from the opposite wing said the government must "stick to its guns", warning that any further changes to appease the right-wingers would breach international law and prove "unacceptable".
39% : It said completely blocking any court challenges would be "a breach of international law and alien to the UK's constitutional tradition of liberty and justice, where even in wartime the UK has maintained access to the courts in order that individuals can uphold their rights and freedoms".
