Conservatives to pledge 1.6 billion Removals Force' to deport 150,000 a year
"aiming to deport 150,000 individuals annually to curb irregular migration into the UK. Plans unveiled on Sunday detail 1.6 billion in funding and "sweeping new powers" for the force, including facial recognition without warning to identify illegal immigrants. This body is expected to "integrate closely" with police, who will be mandated to conduct immigration checks on everyone they stop or arrest. The proposal draws inspiration from the US Immigration"
"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. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story. The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum."
The Independent sends journalists to cover reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech, producing investigations and documentaries that spotlight affected people. The outlet refuses to lock reporting behind paywalls and relies on donations to fund on-the-ground reporting and to present multiple perspectives. The Conservative Party plans a new "Removals Force" to deport 150,000 individuals annually to curb irregular migration into the UK. Plans allocate £1.6 billion and grant powers including facial recognition without warning to identify illegal immigrants. The force would integrate closely with police, mandating immigration checks on everyone stopped or arrested. The proposal cites US ICE as a model despite recent criticism of ICE practices.
