This morning, 17 September 2025, Imogen Townley, Associate Solicitor in our Immigration Department spoke to the BBC, ITV and Times Radio about removals under the UK-France treaty targeting Channel crossings announced in August.
Imogen spoke about her experience of the chaotic way in which the Home Office had selected people for removal and the importance of proper due process being observed to ensure that people (such as children) not eligible for removal under the scheme are not wrongly removed to France.
