Found on Twitter: here’s a thread that’s worth reading.
1/ Astute analysis by the @NewStatesman's @HarrytLambert (doesn't mean he's on our side), which identifies that the #Rwanda flight as a key play in the Tory culture war, designed to draw election battle lines. There is an obvious strategy for dealing this: take it head on. pic.twitter.com/irzSuC85C1

3/ A good portion of the 70million refugees in the world today (many of whom are internally displaced) have been forced to leave by the destruction of their nations by the Anglo Saxon Empire: Yemen, Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq and more. This is not a conversation the Tories want.

This Site has been making the same point for years, of course.
5/5 Turning the conversation Britain's aggressively war mongering role in the world would shut the debate down dead & the Tories would have to think of a new electoral dividing line. #Labour won't do this, so the Tories will be able to shape the debate as they please

Of course, if Starmer is allied with the Tories on this issue, then is he really the man to lead the Opposition to them?
