Comedian Joe Lycett is the on-line slayer of Tories, this time is was Suella Braverman who felt his cheeky wrath/support.
It comes as the Court of appeal judges have ruled that it is unlawful to send asylum seekers to Rwanda.
The three judges agreed by a majority of two to one that Rwanda was not a safe country.
However, they agreed even though assurances provided by the Rwandan government were provided in good faith.
Joe Lycett Suella Braverman
Braverman is very keen on sending people to Rwanda against their will, so is fuming about the ruling.
Joe Lycett sent his “support” tweeting: “SuellaBraverman ignore the haters babe (by haters I mean the royal court of justice)

Agree?
Sunak
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak responded to the ruling: “While I respect the court I fundamentally disagree with their conclusions.
“I strongly believe the Rwandan government has provided the assurances necessary to ensure there is no real risk that asylum-seekers relocated under the Rwanda policy would be wrongly returned to third countries – something that the Lord Chief Justice agrees with.
“Rwanda is a safe country. The High Court agreed. The UNHCR have their own refugee scheme for Libyan refugees in Rwanda. We will now seek permission to appeal this decision to the Supreme Court.
“The policy of this government is very simple, it is this country – and your government – who should decide who comes here, not criminal gangs.
“And I will do whatever is necessary to make that happen.”
