The grim future facing migrants returned to France under one in, one out' deal
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground."
"Sleeping on the streets and relying on charities for food in France, a 25-year-old Eritrean man boarded a dinghy bound for Dover in the hope he could escape to a better life in the UK. Instead, he was swiftly taken to a detention centre upon arrival and eventually told that he was to be among the first migrants to be sent back to France under Sir Keir Starmer's much-vaunted one-in, one-out deal with president Emmanuel Macron."
The Independent seeks donations to fund on-the-ground reporting across reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech while keeping content freely accessible without paywalls. The outlet investigates financials such as Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and produces documentaries like 'The A Word' highlighting American women fighting for reproductive rights. A 25-year-old Eritrean man sleeping on France's streets boarded a dinghy to Dover, was detained and told he would be among the first returned under the UK-France one-in, one-out deal. He successfully challenged deportation to submit evidence of a modern slavery claim; two other migrants were already flown to Paris, and the pilot runs until at least June 2026 amid legal concerns.
