"If they are successful, it will significantly impact the home secretary's ability to deport large numbers of people under the deal, which sees migrants deported from the UK in exchange for asylum seekers from France."
"Ms Mahmood changed the modern slavery guidance last September to speed up deportations under the scheme, effectively preventing migrants from asking for reconsideration from the UK."
