The home secretary has no one but herself to blame for the lack of Rwanda asylum flights, Yvette Cooper has told MPs.

Ms Cooper suggested the Home Office had withdrawn most of the people involved, and only seven would have been on the first flight on Monday that the European Court of Human Rights prevented from taking off.
