*************** is back in the UK and back in his community
The Home Secretary has now brought *************** a gay person seeking asylum in the UK, back to the UK from Uganda where he was unlawfully deported last year. Jacqui Smith was ordered to do this by a High Court judge on 19th February. He arrived back in the UK last Friday and was detained in Tinsley House IRC before being released yesterday afternoon.

659 years of immigration controls


Yarl's Wood family unit closed to new admissions until 24th March
A cumulative outbreak of 'Chicken pox' forced UKBA/Serco to close the family unit to new admissions last Saturday. The first infection was reported on or around 6th February, when one family was quarantined, the quarantine of the first family obviously failed to halt the spread of the infection as by the 1st of March four more family's had been put into isolation. Visits to the family unit are being restricted to just two hours a day for all visits.



Children seeking asylum 'denied protection'
New UK Border Agency Code 'routinely flouted' as Government fails in commitment to safeguard children say Refugee and Migrant Justice. Asylum seeking children in Britain face a 'hostile legal process' and are regularly locked up and left without adult support, according to a new report, 'Does Every Child Matter'? , launched today by Refugee and Migrant Justice (formerly the Refugee Legal Centre). Coming just 2 months after the UK Border Agency published its first Code of Practice for keeping children safe from harm, this is the first ever comprehensive review of children's experiences since the introduction of the Code. The report reveals extensive bad practice and breaches of the Code that are already occurring and also highlights major omissions, both of which put vulnerable children at risk. It claims that there is a major gap between the Government's aspirations of a fair and humane system, and the reality.
