So, was the Rwanda thing really a plan to withdraw from the ECHR all along? It seems possible but I'm not really sure we have anyone in power bright enough to think up something like that.
I don’t think they think that far ahead either. However, I do think Patel looks to pick fights where she can at the moment, as she’s got her eyes firmly on being PM and she needs to cement her credentials with the Party and the ERG.
