          Rishi Sunak confident he can still stop boats as Labour says it’s virtually impossible to end Channel crisis entirely

          RISHI Sunak today insisted he could still “stop the boats” after Labour suggested it was virtually impossible to end Channel crossings entirely.

          Shadow Cabinet Minister Pat McFadden said anyone pledging to eliminate the Channel crisis was “over-claiming”.

          Rishi Sunak confident he can still stop boats as Labour says it’s virtually impossible to end Channel crisis entirely
          Small boat crossings have surged this year

          It was a direct rebuke to the PM’s flagship promise to stop the boats that has come under pressure in recent weeks.

          Downing Street said Mr Sunak remained confident in meeting the commitment despite more than 5,000 arrivals already this year in record time.

          Mr Sunak’s spokeswoman blamed unusually good weather and heightened violence facing French police for the uptick in boat crossings.

          Smuggling gangs operating in Calais are becoming increasingly ruthless, cramming almost 50 migrants into each dinghy up from 20 in 2021.

          The PM’s spokeswoman said: “We need to keep stepping up our efforts and adapting to the gangs who continually adapt their own tactics.

          “But that’s why, alongside continuing that work, we have to fundamentally break the business model, and that’s what the Rwanda partnership will do.”

          More than 5,000 people have made the dangerous journey from France since January in a 43 per cent increase on the same period last year.

          Labour hit out at “complete chaos” after a surge across the Easter weekend saw nearly 800 people arrive.

          Sir Keir Starmer told The Sun last month he also wanted to “stop the boats” and has pledged to ramp up police resources.

          But one of his closest frontbenchers Mr McFadden today doubted whether the party would be able to end all crossings.

          He told Sky News: “It’s a tough problem for all countries throughout Europe so I think anybody who says ‘I can make this stop’ is probably in danger of overclaiming.”

          No10 today also vowed to get deportation flights to Rwanda going by the end of spring to deter people from crossing the Channel.

          The Safety of Rwanda Bill will be brought back on April 15 where Mr Sunak will pressure blocking Lords to finally waive it through.

          WHAT IS THE RWANDA PLAN

          What is the Rwanda plan?

          Under the plan, anyone who arrives in Britain illegally will be deported to Rwanda, a country in eastern Africa.

          The government believes the threat of being removed to Rwanda will deter migrants from making the dangerous Channel crossing in small boats.

          Once in Rwanda, their asylum claims will be processed but there is no route back to the UK, save for some exceptional circumstances such as individual safety concerns. Britain will pay for migrants to start a new life in Rwanda. 

          What’s the hold up?

          First announced by Boris Johnson in 2022, the scheme has been bogged down by relentless legal challenges.

          The first flight was due to take off in summer 2022, but was blocked on the runway at the last minute by a European Court order.

          Since then the legality of the plan has been contested in the courts, culminating in a Supreme Court judgement in November last year which said Rwanda was unsafe for asylum seekers. 

          What is Sunak doing?

          To salvage the Rwanda plan from the Supreme Court’s scathing ruling, Rishi Sunak announced a two-pronged workaround.

          First, he would sign a new treaty with Rwanda to beef up protections for asylum seekers that will be enshrined in law.

          Second, he would introduce new legislation that would declare Rwanda a safe country.

          It would mean courts, police and officials would have to treat it as safe unless there is a risk of individual and irreparable harm.

          How long will that take?

          The legislation has cleared the Commons but is now being held up in the House of Lords. 

          Rishi Sunak does not have a majority in the Lords, and peers are far more hostile to the plan.

          They will likely send it back to the Commons with amendments watering down the scheme.

          Such changes would be unconscionable to MPs who would strip out the measures and send it back.

          This “ping-pong” will continue until either side – usually the unelected Lords – gives in and the Bill passes.

          When will flights take off?

          Mr Sunak wants to get the first flights sent to Rwanda by the spring. 

          But potential hurdles include more court battles launched by individual migrants or the European Court of Human Rights. 

          Mr Sunak has vowed to ignore any more orders by Strasbourg judges to ground planes, although individual appeals in domestic courts could prove tricky.

          Sir Keir Starmer has said he will scrap the scheme if he is elected PM, even if it is working.
