"Under the Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer's one in, one out deal, the first Channel migrant has been deported to France earlier this morning the government has confirmed. It is expected that further flights are expected this week and next. The Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood said, "This is an important first step to securing our borders. It sends a message to people crossing in small boats: if you enter the UK illegally, we will seek to remove you.""
"Last month the treaty agreed between Starmer and the French President Emmanuel Macron was agreed, which allows migrants who cross the Channel illegally can be deported back to France. Mahmood said that she will "challenge any last-minute, vexatious attempts to frustrate a removal in the courts." "The UK will always play its part in helping those genuinely fleeing persecution, but this must be done through safe, legal, and managed routes - not dangerous crossings," she added."
