A very angry pro-Rwanda LBC caller was so over the top that people can’t believe he’s not a comedy character
With the Supreme Court’s judgment finding the Government’s Rwanda policy unlawful, and Rishi Sunak responding by promising to legislate the plan back on track, one caller to LBC became increasingly irate.
Tom Swarwick remained impressively calm – and had the perfect sign-off.
‘The spirit of the law is being absolutely trashed and I cannot wait for the Conservative government to take back control!’@TomSwarbrick1: 'Love to the family.’

Fans of the Exploding Heads will have recognused Tom Swarbrick’s ‘Love to the family’ comment as being a nod to their irate frequent flyer, Colin from Portsmouth.
“The spirit of the law is being absolutely trashed, and I can’t wait until Rishi Sunak’s Conservative government introduces new legislation to take back control.”
“Love to the family.”
This is what tweeters had to say about Colin Adam’s outburst.

I might be taking a bit of a punt, but I bet this bloke still supports Brexit and reads the Daily Mail?

It’s important that we hear what Colin from Portsmouth thinks of the latest Rwanda developments.
"Do you know who the real villain is in all this? It's Gary Bloody Lineker. He's stopping us from sending people to Rwanda "
