Rwanda, tax cuts, an economic upturn or simply something turning up: how the PM can improve his party's standing.Widely acknowledged in the Tories and beyond in Westminster as one of the few cards Mr Sunak has left to play, if the Prime Minister can get deportation flights going it may help win back some voters who have drifted right to Reform.
It appears unlikely the scheme can be scaled up quickly enough for that impact to take hold ahead of a general election, although ministers have been pointing to asylum seekers fleeing the UK for Ireland as evidence the plan is already working.The Prime Minister has all but no chance of a miraculous comeback unless and until the economy begins to perform significantly better, given the cost of living and economy invariably come out on top of opinion polls as voters.
Inflation is expected to drop to its 2 per cent target soon, which could be accompanied by the Bank of England acting to bring down interest rates which have risen sharply in the last two years, hammering family finances. But the Prime Minister is likely to resist calls to cut income tax as he has pledged to abolish NICs entirely in the long-term.
