First polling after Rwanda plan ruled unlawful

We’ve had the first polling since the Supreme Court ruling that the government’s plan to send some asylum seekers to Rwanda is unlawful.

The usual caveats about only one poll apply and double those given how polling on the ECHR can be greatly influenced by question wording. Even so, it’s the first indication whether those who love to disparage a supposed new elite really are in tune with public opinion or not.

So here are the results:

Do you think Britain should remain a member of the European Convention on Human Rights or should we withdraw from it? 51% remain, 28% withdraw
The government's policy to send some asylum seekers to Rwanda has been ruled unlawful by the Supreme Court What, if anything, do you think the government should do in response? 39% scrap, 29% find another country
