UK is providing £370 million in development funding to Rwanda, plus another £120 million once 300 people have been relocated. The UK will also pay up to £171,000 per person relocated, largely to cover a five-year integration package. To date, £240 million has been paid over.

Say 100k people stay in France instead of crossing the channel, how much would that have saved us in homing, feeding and benefits?

Re: In todays news...
Another man, in his 20s, was arrested on suspicion of aggravated burglary after the vehicle he was travelling in was stopped on the A6 near Chapel-en-le-Frith on Wednesday afternoon.
Honour amongst alleged thieves. Buggered off and left his injured oppo to carry the can.
