Patel sends out ‘bizarre’ Christmas card celebrating Rwanda deportations
Former Home Secretary Priti Patel

The disturbing image depicts the former home secretary as a cartoon fairy on top of a Christmas tree bearing baubles inscribed with her “achievements” this year. 

In pride of place is the UK-Rwanda migration pact, a policy she devised with former PM Boris Johnson, who also features on the card as a bare-footed child, eagerly awaiting to unwrap a pile of presents.
