       After weeks of parliamentary wrangling between the House of Commons and House of Lords, MPs finally forced the upper chamber to back down.

       After defeating the Lords’s remaining two amendments yesterday afternoon, Peers insisted on forcing one of the two remaining amendments around the safety of Rwanda.

       The Bill then returned to the Commons one last time, where MPs rejected the amendment yet again by a majority of 75.

       Crossbench peer Lord Anderson of Ipswich pushed an amendment that would have ensured a committee assess whether Rwanda is safe before Asylum seekers are sent there.

       He told the Lords: “We are concerned with the safety of Rwanda both in the present and in the future. This bill is honest about neither”.

       Calling it a “post-truth Bill”, he blasted: “We are asked to be complicit in a present day untruth and a future fantasy”.

       However MPs rejected the amendment, with immigration minister Michael Tomlinson saying the amendment is not necessary.

       The legislation was then sent back to the House of Lords a final time, where peers caved in and allowed the flagship immigration to pass.

       Following the successful passing of the Bill, The Government has pledged to get flights off to the African country by the end of the Summer.

       A document seen by the Express yesterday revealed that flights have been booked to take off in June, and charter plans have been put on standby to remove illegal immigrants to Rwanda.

       Mr Sunak promised: “No ifs, no buts, these flights are going”.
