Nothing to do with language but
am I the only one who thinks one of the most evil and reviled men in America, price gouger Martin Shkrelli and one of the most evil and reviled women in England, Home Secretary Priti Patel bear a "separated at birth" resemblance? The smirks say all that needs to be said about their characters.

I did try to post the pictures rather than the links but I couldn't get it to work.

Those links didn’t work for me Bob, but I looked over Shkrelli & Patel google images. Some look very different, but in the pictures that head up these two articles they totally look like fraternal twins:

Priti Patel

Incidentally I can add a bit of language content to the post. The Priti Patel article uses language to give the wrong impression of what the policy actually is. By calling it "outsourcing" they give the impression that the processing will be in Rwanda after which, if the asylum application is successful they will be able to settle in the UK. That's NOT the policy. The policy is that a successful applicant will be allowed to stay in Rwanda and an unsuccessful one returned to their country of origin.
