Meanwhile Suella Braverman's father used to run concentration camps in Kenya. Her family's business is literally running British concentration camps in Africa, and the core goal of the Tory party in the last couple years has been to reestablish that business, all funded by the taxpayer.

And that's before we touch on the point that the Rwanda deal is two way. The UK will accept "vulnerable refugees" in exchange for every small boat migrant we send over there.

The taxpayer pays to house them until they can be sent over. The taxpayer pays to send them over. The taxpayer pays to set up the infrastructure over there. The taxpayer pays to send over vulnerable refugees in return. The taxpayer pays to accommodate those refugees (who are far less productive than the ones we send out). Private businesses - particularly those outside the UK tax domain - profit.

It's a great racket as long as you can get your hands in the till.

Really needs some context. Here is a picture of Lewis Hamilton shaking hands with Vlad, is Mr Father-in-law doing necessary pleasantries or celebrating the sale of orphan meat?

That's a completely different handshake, though. Hamilton won the race one Russia, but his handshake still has Putin reaching out at a distance. The OP handshake stops just short of Putin putting his arm around him - they're much closer together, much more trusting.

Also both of these pictures are from many Yeats ago.
