Priti Patel ambushed by eco mob over her Rwanda migration policy as scheme due to start next week

Priti Patel was ambushed by a group of protestors over her Rwanda migration policy while giving a speech at a Tory dinner on Friday night.

A video shared by campaign group Green New Deal Rising shows several protestors suddenly stand up one at a time to deliver a message to the Home Secretary.

The demonstrator is then escorted by security, but then another woman stands up from her chair and continues the protest, saying young people are 'disgusted' by the controversial immigration policy.

As she is ushered out, yet another protestor gets up and brands the policy 'cruel', before they all begin chanting: 'Out, out, out!'

A Home Office spokesperson said: 'The world-leading Migration Partnership will overhaul our broken asylum system, which is currently costing the UK taxpayer £1.5bn a year – the highest amount in two decades.

'It means those arriving dangerously, illegally or unnecessarily can be relocated to have their asylum claims considered and, if recognised as refugees, build their lives there.

'Our new Migration and Economic Development Partnership with Rwanda fully complies with international and national law.'

The first migrants to be sent to the central African nation will be single men, and it is expected that they will be notified by Home Office lawyers in the next few days.
