Sending the first 300 migrants to Rwanda costs £1.8m each. To put that in context, school funding is around £7,600 per child per year. So the cost of sending one migrant to Rwanda would get 234 children education for a year. Is that a good use of money?

Absolutely agree Brendan May he put it so simply and effectively.

Really interesting overview from ⁦Jenny Patrickson⁩ ⁦ActiveIQ⁩ about how they have expanded internationally and also overview of Saudi Arabia’s aspirations. #AOForum24

Excellent first session by Mark Easton at the Memcom conference focussing on ‘Smart Growth: Sustainable Future’ for membership/professional bodies. Really painting a positive view, supported by stats, about how we are feeling as a nation #MemCom2024

#SuellaBraverman demonstrating on BBC Radio 4 Today that a little bit of knowledge is very dangerous - especially when you have a platform to talk. She’s just wrong on so many levels.

One of the greatest to ever play the game.

I remember meeting Derek Underwood at Canterbury a few times when I was a boy - and he was an absolute legend. Always made time to talk to people and sign autographs. Him, Alan Knott, Chris Cowdrey, Richard Ellison and others - what a Kent team that was, eh Iain Stockdale-Smith #KentCCC

Unfortunately due to the really poor/intermittent reception of Times Radio in the South East, I’ve gone back to BBC Radio 4 Today - I’ve quickly remembered why I moved away from the Today programme. The constant interruptions and combative approach of the interviewers Nick Robinson

He really doesn't look very comfortable at all. And neither should he feel very comfortable.

Crikey... > New FAB boss suddenly resigns feweek.co.uk/new-fab-boss-s…

The more I see of Keir Starmer in the press and on platform talking, the more I think the presidential and leader he looks compared to Sunak… Sunak has looked anything but over the last few months (if he ever did)…

Ouch… But in fairness - could she be on to something…

Remember in Jan 2022, when the then Chancellor, Rishi Sunak, refused to let the National Crime Agency investigate Covid fraud...

And the Govt’s anti-fraud minister, Lord Agnew, resigned over Sunak's ‘schoolboy’ non-attempts to recover billions in fraud?

I’m listening to BBC Radio 4 Today under duress because Times Radio signal is so patchy in the South East in my car. I’m reminded every day part of the reason why I converted to Times. The background noise of keyboards in use when interviews taking place & interruptions by presenters.

Have just caught up with the Michelle Mone interview with Laura Kuenssberg - not going to win them a lot of support I don’t think. I didn’t feel sorry for them one bit. It all felt very fake from her and her husband.

A devastating 4-minute demolition of the #RwandaBill by Chris Bryant.

Each of his five reasons for voting against this bill is unanswerable. The five together are an annihilation of the govt's nonsense.

If you only watch one speech from this debate, this is the one. ~AA

Here's a running thread of all the things the current Prime Minister cannot recall whilst under oath at the Covid Inquiry.

Some more understandable than others I'd humbly suggest.

And, he’s actually smirking whilst responding… Is that embarrassment on his part… I just don’t think it is…
