North Shropshire’s Liberal Democrat MP has confirmed her intention to vote against the Government’s ‘unworkable’ Rwanda plan this evening.

Helen Morgan, Liberal Democrat MP for North Shropshire, said, "Britain needs a fair and efficient system to deal with asylum seekers. The Conservatives have wasted nearly £300 million on an unworkable policy. That money could have been used to create an effective system but has been wasted on soundbites.

"The Rwanda scheme is immoral, unworkable and a waste of taxpayers' money. I will not be voting for the Government's plan."
