Started streaming 2 hours ago #Rwanda #Immigration #Politics Today is a crucial day for Rishi Sunak's premiership... at 7pm, MPs will vote on his emergency legislation designed to address the reasons the Supreme Court ruled the plan unlawful.
While centrist MPs have indicated they are likely to vote in favour of advancing the bill in the Commons, right-wing MPs could abstain, or even vote against.
If Mr Sunak loses the vote, he will be the first prime minister to have a bill voted down at the second reading since 1986.

Nick Fletcher blamed foreigners for long hospital waits.
A Tory MP has been criticised after he blamed lengthy waits at accident and emergency departments on “people who don’t speak English”.
Nick Fletcher said his Doncaster constituency was “full” in a debate on the government’s plans to deport asylum seekers to Rwanda.
His comments led to him being compared to Enoch Powell, whose infamous anti-immigration “rivers of blood” speech sparked fury in the 1960s.
Fletcher, the MP for Don Valley, accused pro-immigration MPs of “burying your heads in the sand because you’re trying to make yourself look good in front of people to get votes”.
He added: “Your child falls over in the street and you have to go to A&E.
“And you get a 12-hour waiting list and the reason why the waiting lists are so long is because people don’t speak English in these places any more and this is what is happening.
“You then go to the schools and the classes are over-sized and this is what’s happening.”
As he was heckled by other MPs, Fletcher said: “You can shout me down, you can say what you want, I really don’t care.
″But this is what’s happening and we have to tackle this illegal immigration and this immigration because it is not fair.”
