Nigel Farage has finally unveiled Reform UK’s plan for mass deportations in a bid to finally bring an end to Britain’s migrant crisis.The Reform chief has shed light on a multi-stage scheme to remove the hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants who arrive on small boats across the Channel.His poll-topping party, if it wins the next General Election, will bring in emergency laws under the illegal migration (mass deportation) Bill.Nigel Farage has finally unveiled Reform UK’s plan for mass deportations | PAVoyager planes would carry out five returns flights every day under the plans | ROYAL AIR FORCEIf that failed, Reform would look south to Ascension Island, one of the British Overseas Territories in the Atlantic – which could be used as a “fallback” option to further deter those seeking to make their way to the mainland UK.The party’s future Home Secretary would have a statutory duty to remove people from Britain, Mr Farage also said, while Britain would ditch the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and replace it with a British Bill of Rights.Further criminal offences would also be brought in for people who try to return to the country after being deported, as well as those who shred their identity documents on the way over – a common tactic in the Channel.Under the plans, Mr Farage predicted that hundreds of thousands of people would be deported – and said that five charter flights on RAF Voyager jets would leave the country every single day.He also cast down concerns over what would happen to the illegal migrants once they were returned home.”I’m really sorry, but we can’t be responsible for everything that happens in the whole of the world,” Mr Farage confirmed.”Who is our priority? Is it the safety and security of this country and its people? Or are we worrying about everybody else and foreign courts? That’s what it comes down to. Whose side are you on?”Further criminal offences would also be brought in for people who try to return to the country after being deported | GETTYReform UK’s scheme would cost the country an estimated £10billion and take five years – but would ultimately save taxpayers money compared to the current spend on dealing with the migrant crisis.”The aim of this legislation is mass deportations,” the Reform UK leader said.”We have a massive crisis in Britain. It is not only posing a national security threat but it’s leading to public anger that frankly is not very far away from disorder.”There is only one way to stop people coming into Britain and that is to detain them and deport them.”Mr Farage’s pledge is a direct U-turn from his comments to GB News last September, when he warned it would be a “political impossibility” to mass deport illegal migrants from Britain.It also brings an end to months of speculation over what Reform’s plan would look like.In April, Mr Farage announced plans would be forthcoming – but only confirmed them in August.Just days ago, the Conservatives – under whom the small boats crisis began – accused his party of having “no plan” amid the radio silence.Rupert Lowe, an outspoken advocate of mass deportations, declared that the “online right” had forced Mr Farage’s hand following his interview with The Times on Friday.”The online right has forced Reform and the Tories to move on mass deportations,” he said. “Next? The important one. The only one that actually matters for four years. The Labour Government.”Reform UK will make a “big announcement on mass deportations of illegal migrants” on Tuesday, the party’s former chairman Zia Yusuf added on Friday evening.
