    n January 2016, the Labour Party proposed an amendment to the Housing and Planning Bill 2016[24] that would have required private landlords to make homes which they put up for rent "fit for human habitation". According to Parliament's register of interests, Cleverly was one of 72 Conservative MPs who voted against the amendment and who personally derived an income from renting out property.

Citizens will patiently only ask once. After that you can be guaranteed that they will remove a failed representative. Just to put that staggering Rwanda cost into perspective for those that find it shocking, Sunak and his wife's worth for 2023 was 830million. Rishi played the UK and is going to walk away, without any consequence, richer than the King.
