Second man deported under ‘one in, one out’ scheme returns to UK on small boat

Person was detected as one of the 94 migrants who had been removed from Britain under UK-France treaty

A second person who was removed to France under the government’s “one in, one out” deal has returned to the UK, the Home Office has confirmed.

The unnamed man arrived back in the UK after joining nearly 400 people who crossed the Channel in small boats on Sunday.

The Home Office said the person, whose age and nationality are yet to be disclosed, was detected by biometrics as one of the 94 migrants who had been removed from Britain under the UK-France treaty over the past two months.

He was detained immediately and the department said he would be removed back to France “as quickly as possible”.
