TORY minister Chris Philp was left embarrassed on Question Time as he appeared to ask if Rwanda and Congo were different countries.

The policing minister’s blunder came on Thursday night’s Question Time as he was grilled on the Government’s deportation policy

Aid organisations are fearing a humanitarian crisis in the eastern Congo region, where the armed M23 group is in the midst of a new advance near the border with Rwanda. The audience member then interjected to explain the people he was talking about are “not from Rwanda, they’re from Congo”.The question was met with visible bewilderment from the audience as well as shadow health secretary Wes Streeting.Philp added: “There is a clause in the legislation that says if somebody would suffer seriously irreversible harm by being sent somewhere they wouldn’t be sent.

Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
