Have the Tories stopped caring about the rule of law?

After a couple of dramatic resignations last night from Tory rebels, the government appears fairly confident it CAN get it's Rwanda bill through the commons.

But at what cost?

Rishi has had to fight both flanks of his party. And those on his right are increasingly sounding like they're prepared to sack off the ol' rule of law to stop judges getting in the way of Rwanda flights taking off.

Is the government prepared to follow them? And what kind of Conservatism would that be?

Later, we look at Iran flexing its muscles in the region - why is it attacking Syria, Iraq and Pakistan?
