Today, Reform UK leader Nigel Farage unveiled a sweeping plan for the mass deportation of illegal immigrants, marking a dramatic shift in British migration policy. At a press conference at Oxford Airport, he unveiled proposals that aim to fundamentally change the legal framework and practice of managing migration in the UK.
The UK Reform Plan envisages withdrawing from the European Convention on Human Rights, repealing the Human Rights Act 1998 and suspending the 1951 Refugee Convention for five years. Farage said that all illegal migrants would be detained immediately upon arrival and that detention capacity would be increased to 24,000 people at a time. The target is to deport 288,000 migrants annually through a new structure called the UK Deportation Command.
Farage stressed that there would be a legal obligation for the Home Secretary to remove anyone who enters the country illegally. He said this would be done immediately, without delay and without exceptions. Zia Yusuf from Reform UK added that anyone who enters illegally would face a lifetime ban, while re-entry after deportation would be considered a criminal offence punishable by up to five years in prison.
One of the most contentious issues is the detention of women and children. Farage acknowledged that this is a complex issue, but did not rule out keeping them in detention conditions. He also spoke about the use of military bases as detention facilities, but did not give specific details. When asked about the risk of sending asylum seekers to places where they could face torture, Farage avoided a direct answer, shifting the emphasis to public safety and what happens on British streets.
Human rights groups have reacted sharply. Kolbassia Haoussou of Freedom from Torture said the plan ran counter to Britain's tradition of protecting victims of torture and posed a serious threat to the country's international reputation. Farage accused France of colluding with criminal gangs by allowing their ships to escort migrant boats to British shores.
He also claimed the measures would save hundreds of billions of pounds, reducing the cost of Channel operations, court costs and the burden on the police. The proposals came at a time when the British public is increasingly frustrated with the accommodation of migrants in hotels and the perceived risk that undocumented young men pose to public safety. Farage called the situation a cultural crisis and highlighted the public's fatigue with international treaties that he considers outdated.
The Reform UK plan represents one of the most radical proposals in recent years in British migration policy and has sparked strong debates on the country's political scene.
