Robert Jenrick has resigned as immigration minister, saying the government's emergency Rwanda legislation "does not go far enough".
He said "stronger protections" were needed to end "the merry-go-round of legal challenges which risk paralysing the scheme".
The government said the bill, unveiled earlier, made clear in UK law Rwanda was a safe country for asylum seekers.
But it stops short of what some on the Tory right were demanding.
In his resignation letter to the prime minister, Mr Jenrick said: "In our discussions on the proposed emergency legislation you have moved towards my position, for which I am grateful.
"Nevertheless, I am unable to take the currently proposed legislation through the Commons as I do not believe it provides us with the best possible chance of success."

The Courts ruled it incompatible with international law so Parliament are trying to find a way around it with a new law.
Apparently it won't work or doesn't go far enough....
What a mess..
How is it in Rwanda’s interest to take any of them?
They’re getting paid
No amount of money is sufficient unless they plan to transfer them to a third country, like maybe Zaire.
Their president is getting paid off we’re talking hundreds of millions over many years.
He will take them and use them for labor I guess.
Come to think about it they might expand and take U.S illegals
Good idea?
Draft all illegals, send them to the front in Ukraine.
Tell the Russians they’re “The Americans”, should strike fear into the heart of the Russian divisions.
PS, since we’re a bit short on arms, they can just take all the surplus M1’s we have.
Better idea.
