The home secretary riled some in her party by suggesting that being gay or a woman and fearful of discrimination should not be enough to qualify as a refugee in the UK. Her speech was seen as a warning that the UK could commit to leaving the European convention on human rights (ECHR), if the scheme to remove migrants who arrive in small boats is blocked by the supreme court.
My guess. Only 2 tory MPs were willing to criticize the party line. After whipped not to.
