"Rwanda Bill Debate Puts Sunak Government in Hot Seat"

TL;DR Summary
UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is facing a crucial week as two factions within the Conservative Party prepare to debate his flagship Rwanda bill. Up to 100 MPs on each side are expected to meet to discuss how to vote on the legislation, which aims to limit court challenges to deporting migrants to East Africa. Sunak needs to keep the rebellion below 56 abstentions or 28 votes against to avoid defeat. While some MPs are open to making the legislation work, others demand changes to harden it. Sunak's position is also being challenged by plotters within his own party, with talk of ousting him before the election.
