Robert Jenrick delivered blow-after-blow to Rishi Sunak\u2019s flagship Rwanda plan this morning, warning that the Bill simply \u201cwon\u2019t work\u201d.<\/p>\n

In his first television interview since sensationally quitting the Government earlier this week, Mr Jenrick refused to deny that the Prime Minister is intentionally misleading voters about how successful the new illegal migrant plan will be.<\/p>\n

The former immigration minister also hit back at Mr Sunak, who said in a letter responding to Mr Jenrick\u2019s resignation that he \u201cfundamentally misunderstood\u201d the new Bill.<\/p>\n

Mr Jenrick diplomatically said \u201cI think I do understand the issue\u201d, pointing out that the PM himself had praised his former minister\u2019s expertise on the subject.<\/p>\n

He warned that the disagreement between him and Mr Sunak is \u201cabsolutely totemic\u201d, and warned the Bill will not work as individual migrant appeals will still be allowed.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it will lead to a range of legal claims that will bog down our scheme and will not create the deterrent that he and I set out to achieve.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe test for this is not \u2018can you get one or two symbolic flights off before the next election with a handful of illegal migrants on them\u2019, it\u2019s \u2018can you create a strong deterrent that is sustainable and stops the boats, and protects the borders of this country for years to come\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat is what I want to achieve and I\u2019m afraid this Bill is not it.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also slammed the PM after reports the Government\u2019s own lawyers said the legislation has a slim chance of working.<\/p>\n

Mr Jenrick said it\u2019s \u201cvery clear to all those people who really understand how this system operates that this Bill will not succeed\u201d.<\/p>\n
