Govt: We will still prepare for next Rwanda flight

Work and Pensions Secretary Therese Coffey says the government will continue to prepare to send asylum seekers to Rwanda, despite a last-minute legal challenge from the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) cancelling yesterday's flight, She says she is "disappointed and surprised" by the ECHR's "rapid" decision and says the government will take steps in a bid to overturn the ruling.
