Suella Braverman said she dreams of flying migrants to Rwanda and Gary Lineker had the best response
New home secretary Suella Braverman has been at the Conservative party conference sharing the things she really, really dreams about.
And it turns out the thing she’s most excited about is seeing a plane full of people who had come to these shores seeking a home and a fresh start packed off to Rwanda. Presumably while she waves it away from the runway.
It’s not just her dream – it’s her obsession.

And while it prompted no end of totally on-point responses …

I can (maybe) understand someone reluctantly (and wrongly) supporting the Rwanda policy as a necessary evil, but I can’t understand someone actively celebrating it. That takes a particularly cruel personality. pic.twitter.com/m322UheOXv

Sick. Absolutely sick.Even if this comes out of pure ignorance (and she should not be ignorant) it is abhorrent. Revelling in the suffering of others; in the punishment of a ‘category’ of person. Cruelty personified. https://t.co/RjYDVoHk8D

… Surely Gary Lineker said it best.

He might not have spoken for everyone. Just nearly everyone …
This is one of the most disturbing things I’ve seen for a long time. Her gleeful mannerisms and that plane-flying-off thing she does with her arm. Stuck for words about how repulsive this is, tbh…

Suella Braverman's father came to the UK from Kenya seeking refuge, after being forced out in the 1960s.
This country gave him and his family the opportunity to live here and flourish. The right thing to do.
His daughter wants to deport modern refugees to Rwanda https://t.co/SrUHb3zfxB

Children of immigrants who despise other immigrants probably shouldn’t be in charge of immigration policy. They often seem to be dealing with personal issues that shouldn’t be anywhere near the political space. People who protected & defended their parents might do a better job.

Last word to @mrjamesob.
'What's wrong with her? What happened? Who hurt her?'
A 'heartbroken' and 'disgusted' James O'Brien rips Home Secretary Suella Braverman to utter shreds for 'dreaming of deporting completely innocent and decent fellow human beings'.@mrjamesob pic.twitter.com/KRmBT23p9K
