The Indian-origin Home Secretary has previously made clear that she will do “whatever it takes” to send asylum seekers to Rwanda – a plan that has been blocked by the courts. Her trip and speech in the US to discuss migration issues will be seen as further evidence in the Tory party that she is positioning herself as a potential leadership candidate for the right should the Conservatives lose the next election.
