"Robert Jenrick's Resignation Sparks Tory Crisis Amid Rwanda Immigration Legislation"

Robert Jenrick has resigned as immigration minister, stating that the government's emergency Rwanda legislation does not provide sufficient protections and could lead to legal challenges. The bill aims to establish Rwanda as a safe country for asylum seekers, but falls short of the demands of some Conservative MPs. Jenrick's resignation is seen as a blow to Rishi Sunak's leadership, as the government faces challenges in addressing migration issues. The draft legislation orders courts to ignore certain sections of the Human Rights Act and other laws that hinder deportations to Rwanda, but does not override the entire Human Rights Act or the European Convention on Human Rights.
