The Labour government’s decision to scrap the previous administration's controversial Rwanda deportation scheme has led to significant job cuts, affecting around 280 escort officers.
Home Secretary Yvette Cooper criticized the Rwanda scheme, labeling it "the biggest waste of taxpayer money I have ever seen" following a staggering £700 million expenditure with no removals.
Despite initial plans for the Rwanda deportation flights, not a single asylum seeker has been forcibly removed, leading to job redundancies among escort officers.
Though the Home Office has cut jobs, it seems they continue to employ a greater number of escort officers than in 2022, indicating a chaotic approach to deportations.
