It also wasn’t costed. So, rightly, because of illegality & failure to cost - the #CivilService refused to implement. This resulted in @pritipatel issuing ….
…. a ‘ministerial direction’. Which means she personally takes responsibility for anything going wrong.
If it goes wrong & she’s sued the taxpayer pays the cost. The ministerial code is overseen by @BorisJohnson - so she won’t get the push as he wanted her to do it.
2/2 So, if it goes ahead, we have a breach of international law & the taxpayer pays for it & she won’t loose her ministerial job despite accepting personal responsibility.
On top of this, the policy would be checked out by @SuellaBraverman a lawyer. She won’t stand down ….
… like Lord Wolfson did.
So, the governments top lawyer & our #PrimeMinister & head of the #homeoffice - not forgetting the cabinet are content with all this.
I’ve never known a #Tory government this vile, corrupt & full of hate.
