00:00 The Rwanda deal is the perfect example.
00:03 A policy that they knew would never work.
00:07 And yet the charade continues.
00:09 £290 million of taxpayers' money, your money,
00:14 spent on an exercise,
00:16 and a failed one at that,
00:18 in Conservative Party management.
00:21 And of course, not a single person has been sent.
00:26 And even if we did send people,
00:28 we would pay for their hotels and upkeep,
00:31 and we'd have to resettle refugees from Rwanda in exchange.
