BARAC UK, Movement for Justice and other campaigners came to the Home Office to demand an end to forcible mass deportations such as the flight in September which took 42 people to Jamaica, many who had lived in the UK for decades and have partners, spouses, children and grandchildren here and some who were in process of becoming naturalised or appealing deportation.

On Wednesday 7th September, the UK government forcibly removed 42 Jamaican people on a privately chartered flight. Many of the people on the flight had lived in the UK for decades, some arriving as children and had British born partners / spouses, children and grandchildren. Several were still going through the process of naturalisation or appeals and were detained whilst signing in with the Home Office and removed within a fortnight.
