Proof that hard work works is the sharp drop in the number of Albanians crossing the English Channel illegally since Mr Sunak struck an agreement to turn them back.

Out of hundreds, it’s now just single digits every week.

The Rwanda program could have had a similar effect.

But legal challenges from left-wing lawyers threatening to take the government to the European Court of Human Rights have delayed this.

Mr Sunak is now said to be considering the nuclear option of withdrawing from the ECHR altogether if that ultimately blocks his forthcoming legislation.

It also means freedom to make our own laws.

I have no idea Keir

AFTER weeks of hiding on the issue, Labor finally admitted the truth yesterday.

She would have to refuse to meet the massive wage demands of striking nurses.

Shadow Work and Pensions Secretary Jonathan Ashworth admitted Sir Keir Starmer would not pay NHS workers anything above 10 per cent.
