"i've always said that this policy will not be easy to deliver, i'm disappointed that legal challenges and last—minute claims have meant today's flight was unable to depart. it's very surprising that the european court of human rights is intervened despite repeated earlier successes and our domestic courts. these repeated legal barriers are similar to those we experienced with other flights, and those that are removed from this flight will be placed onto the next one. we won't be deterred from doing the right thing and from controlling our nation's borders. our legal team are reviewing every decision possible and preparing for the next flight now begins." that's a statement we have from the home secretary in the last few minutes, given that flight with migrants a board will now not leave the uk. let's talk to kate

priti patel has broken the law again, says the mirror, over her treatment of asylum seekers, the highoused at how the processing that they undergo, some of that is on the port around this part of the country, what happens then and what is their entitlement and what is the level of entitlement, there are a lot of checks and balances, a lot of independent advisers and monitors who look at this, and in this has been raised a number of times with the government. the government's case previously was that if it was temporary accommodation and people were being dispersed around the country and moved on fast, there was a sort of basic flow to the level of accommodation, quite often that doesn't happen or gets delayed and the equalities act comes into play. it is another question for pity patel to answer, and underlying it —— priti patel, the system isn't working at, that is why she has gone for this dramatic rwanda settlement policy and to try to stem the numbers coming across the channel. the question will be a she crossing the line to the way of dealing with this asylum seekers which is unf

the home secretary, priti patel, said she was disappointed but would not be deterred, and preparations a second flight were underway. mark lobel reports. going nowhere. borisjohnson�*s rwanda plan to cut immigration grounded for now. this flight was originally meant to take over 100 asylum seekers to rwanda, thenjust a handful, when finally all passengers were removed following a series of legal challenges. it's particularly galling for the government, coming on the day more than 300 people arrived in dover after attempting to cross the channel in small boats. the exact journey this policy is meant to deter. britain's partner in this, the rwandan government, remains on board. we are undeterred. we are committed to this partnership and we stand ready to welcome the migrants when they do arrive in rwanda. and so we will wait to see what happens, but on our part we are ready to receive the migrants. the european court of human rights, which is separate to the european union, and to which the uk is a signatory, has the final say in human rights issues. it ruled asylum applicants would face

statement, home i secretary priti patel. had the right to control its borders. we will not be put off by the inevitable legal last—minute challenges, nor will we allow mobs, madam deputy speaker, to block removals. we will not stand idly by and let organised crime gangs, who are despicable in their nature and their conduct, evil people, treat human beings as cargo. but labour say the plans make britain look shameful around the world. this isn't a long—term plan — it's a short—term stunt. everyone can see it. it's not serious policy — it's shameless posturing and she knows it. it's not building consensus — it'sjust pursuing division. it is government by gimmick. after days of legal action in the british courts, there were just four passengers due to leave on the first flight to rwanda last night. after a last—minute intervention by a judge from the european court of human rights, the plane stayed on the tarmac. many conservatives are now questioning the powers of that court in strasbourg. this is what the british . people wan

tested in a court of law in the uk, but of course, again, one of the themes with borisjohnson and pritiel, the home secretary, is to be able to blame lefty lawyers, who they attack, and this gives them another excuse to blame the lefty lawyers for stopping them doing what they want. the whole thing is a ridiculous smoke screen. if they want to tackle the asylum, they can do so, as france suggested, they could process on french soil, they could have a more effective system in the uk. we desperately need an efficient asylum system, and we don't have it. instead we get these ridiculous stunts. latika, 28,526 people made it to britain last year on this route, 45 people either went missing or died attempting to do so. so you can see statistically why people might carry on coming, although it is very dangerous water, one of the most crowded waterways in the world, actually the risk to life is proportionally relatively low. terrible what happened to that a5, but proportionally it's quite a low figure. australia had exactly this problem of offshoring. it tried to offshore, and australia, it see

do you think priti patel is a bully or was a bully? of what she did, bullied some of her staff and i did also set out a lot of mitigating factors, like it had not been brought to her attention, there were sort of — she did get frustrated sometimes with some of the staff in the department. and the other bit was that since it was brought to her attention, she had taken note of it. so, i set out some mitigating factors but i did think actually, the evidence was there that she had bullied some staff. there are lots of tory mps who say to us that they are worried the prime minister is tarnishing notjust his own reputation but that of the government and the conservative party and also institutions, the actual office of prime minister. are you worried that this pattern of behaviour — and we pointed out that you resigned and lord geidt has resigned — that it is dragging down that office? there have been quite a lot of issues. i mean, there were, for example, there was the original attempt to overturn the ruling about the committee on standards

that lawyer has told the judge that they have had two meetings with the home office since priti patelof those meetings, they said as far as they are concerned, as, effectively, they are concerned, as, effectively, the guardians of international refugee law, the plan is entirely illegal, and they say that is why they cannot endorse what the uk home office is doing. they have two principal concerns within that. one is rwanda's capacity to effectively deal with anybody who is coming from the uk, and a second is that they say there is evidence that some asylum seekers in rwanda have then been transferred to countries where they have been subject to persecution, and perhaps torture and other awful circumstances. that is why this case matter so much. what we think it's going to happen is possibly a decision today on whether or not to injunctive and stop the flights, but that there will be a fundamentally longer hearing over 6-8 fundamentally longer hearing over 6—8 weeks, if that happens, over whether or not the policy can survive. so there is a lot to fight for here at court.— for here at

the home secretary, priti patel, said she was disappointed, but would not be deterred and preparationsight were under way. let's get the latest from our correspondent duncan kennedy at the airfierld where the flight was due to take off. what has happened really is that the flight is not leaving. that's the bottom line message in all of this. after hours and hours of uncertainty both let me take you through some of the day's events both here and in the courts. certainly here all afternoon we were seeing these asylum—seekers being brought to this base behind me in a series of police convoys. then, later on, we saw various vehicle activity by the aircraft on the runway about 200 metres behind me. there were catering trucks and police vehicles, it looked like the flight crew getting on. then mid—evening, they turned on the lights on the runway here and it looked as though it was all going ahead. and then we started picking up these noises, these messages from the courts and london and in brussels to the effect that something might be on and not everybody was going to be on this flight. the
