The Home Office is set to lodge an appeal on Thursday against the High Court’s decision to block the deportation of an Eritrean man to France.
The Home Secretary said she will fight “last minute claims” which is blocking the government to send migrants back to France as part of the “one in, one out” deal.
Shabana Mahmood said, “Last-minute attempts to frustrate a removal are intolerable, and I will fight them at every step.
“I will fight to end vexatious, last-minute claims.
“I will robustly defend the British public’s priorities in any court.
“And I will do whatever it takes to secure our border.”
Mahmood said that the migrants are making a “mockery” of the UK’s laws and “generosity.”
