The British government is set to release a summary of its legal advice regarding a draft legislation aimed at reintroducing a policy to send asylum seekers to Rwanda. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's spokesperson confirmed that the summary will be made public on Monday. Sunak, however, is facing challenges in maintaining his authority, as politicians from both the left and right sides of his Conservative Party express discontent with the legislation and threaten to vote against it.

This internal opposition has put pressure on Sunak's position within his party. Despite these challenges, Sunak remains confident that lawmakers, who are scheduled to vote on the legislation for the first time on Tuesday, will be aligned with the government's stance that the Rwanda bill is the appropriate and sole approach to address asylum seeker issues. The publication of the legal advice summary will provide further insight into the potential implications and considerations of this draft legislation. The outcome of the upcoming vote will indicate the level of support for the government's proposal and may determine the future trajectory of the asylum seeker policy.
