UK records highest deportations of illegal migrants, 'returns flights' - Business Standard

Quick Summary:

The government said bespoke charter flights have removed immigration offenders to countries around the world, including four of the biggest "returns flights" in the UK's history carrying more than 800 people.

The UK government has claimed to have exceeded its target of deporting illegal migrants to countries of their origin, hitting the highest rate of removals since 2018 leading to 16,400 people with no right to be in the UK being removed.

Home Office figures released on Thursday claim enforced returns were up 24 per cent compared to the same 12 months prior, including the removal of 2,580 foreign criminals marking a 23 per cent increase on last year.
