Britain deports 22 Albanians for ‘illegal’ migration

LONDON, 12 November 2022, (TON): The UK has deported 22 Albanians via a chartered flight, amid reports in the British press that they were illegal migrants and criminals.

The heavily guarded flight was personally authorized by Home Secretary Suella Braverman, the Daily Mail said. Most on board were transferred to the plane via what the newspaper described as secure vans from closed deportation centers where they had been held as criminals or for illegal immigration.

Some were vetted at the Manston migrant processing center in Kent. The short-term holding facility was designed for a maximum of 1,600 people.

However, the population has swelled to almost three times that number as the government fails to process the asylum claims of thousands of people crossing from France in small boats.
