Priti Patel’s “immoral” plan to fly unwanted asylum seekers to Rwanda could be held in limbo for months after an epic court fight.
The High Court, Court of Appeal and Supreme Court had all ruled the plane - costing between £200,000 and £500,000 - could take off last night.
But the number of asylum seekers on board the 200-seater Boeing 767 was whittled down to zero with minutes to spare before last night’s 10.30pm take-off.
