Apparently Lee Anderson has just been sat at home with his toy planes making take off noises for the last hour.

I think it's fair to say this is the one flight we're all pleased to see cancelled.

NOBODY is flying to Rwanda tonight
That would ordinarily save us £1/2 million but knowing this Govt they’ve probably contracted to pay it already without a cancellation clause!

I dunno chaps maybe the government could ease the Cost of Living crisis by not doing things like spaffing £500,000 on inhumane & illegal flights ?
