Reform UK proposes deporting asylum seekers who cross the Channel in small boats and pledges to withdraw from the ECHR, the 1951 refugee convention, the UN convention against torture and the Council of Europe anti-trafficking convention. The policy would allow deportations to countries including Afghanistan and Eritrea and would send teams of immigration officials into communities to find and remove people who settled here after arriving irregularly. The acting archbishop of York described the proposal as isolationist, short-term and kneejerk. Reform's deputy leader accused the archbishop of interfering in domestic politics. The party has struggled to answer detailed questions about implementation and cost.
