49% : That will make it absolutely clear to our courts and to Strasbourg that the risks laid out by the court today have been responded to, will be consistent with international law and ensure that Parliament is able to scrutinise it.'Ex-minister Jonathan Gullis challenged Mr Cleverly on whether he was 'willing to disapply international treaties and conventions such as the ECHR and the Refugee Convention in order to take back control of our borders, yes or no?'Mr Cleverly responded: 'I don't believe those things are necessary.'Tory MP Caroline Johnson said her constituents were disappointed by the court's ruling, adding: 'I understand his plan is to upgrade the treaty with Rwanda, can he advise the House how long will that take?
