As the world moves further towards authoritarianism, how secure do you think Sir Mo feels about that?

In his shoes, would you be brave enough to speak out politically against a government in power, given his situation?

You're both right. The Home Secretary's statement that no action will be taken can form the basis of a 'legitimate expectation' which is enforceable by judicial review if a future government changes its mind.

Would I risk that, given current government threats against both refugees and the continued availability of effective judicial review? I'm not sure. Probably not.
