Suella Braverman has "schooled" Labour MP Stella Creasy in a Commons clash over Rishi Sunak's Rwanda Bill. The Prime Minister saw the Safety of Rwanda Bill pass its third reading in the House of Commons by a majority of 44 on Wednesday (January 17).
Ahead of the vote, Mrs Braverman reminded the House of the Tories' 2019 manifesto pledge to stop the boats, saying: "We made a promise."
The former Home Secretary then gave way to Ms Creasy, who said: "I know she feels this passionately, I just wonder if she could clarify - because she's got a concern there about a foreign court - what does she think NATO is?"
Members of Parliament could be heard laughing before Mrs Braverman told the MP for Walthamstow: "NATO is not a court. I'm slightly embarrassed that I have to make that clear to the Honourable Lady, that's really elementary politics."
Ms Creasy could be seen nodding her head vigorously with her hands outstretched as Mrs Braverman continued, claiming: "We are being governed by a foreign court and judges who do not have our interests at heart."
