So the Rwanda deal everyone is talking about apparently the UK get's to send 200 people a year there and they have to pay Rwanda 600.000 to 700.000 thousand a year to accommodate those 200. The whole idea began as some completely off the cuff remark made by Johnson in the parliament Of course...

Yeah it does seem like that although Poland recently went the other way getting rid of there eurosceptic party. Outside of Europe really anything could happen in the US next year. I'm kinda hoping the Americans might be influenced by the UK election if that happens first but who knows.
