"BBC reporting that the only issue is that the US is returning them in military aircraft. Civilians should be returned in civilian aircraft it seems..." But the aircraft are fit to carry military personel to a war zone. Or do all the illegal migrants want a first-class return. How did they get to where they are in the first place. | |||

"Colombia refuses permission for us military planes to land in the country as these are being used as deportation flights for people Trump now say he will place an emergency 25% tariff on all Colombian goods… rising to 50% tariff if they do not comply Guess where the us gets most of its coffee from…..

"Great work by Trump. Meanwhile countries like Pakistan refuse to take back convicted r@pe gang leaders and the UK does nothing." Exactly! If a country acts strong and doesn't bend over, it's called bullying these days. | |||

" There’s really nothing they could do that same won’t defend, eh? Question of degree. Denied water and toilet (if true) is hardly the torture chamber eh?" It's also material (a) how cooperative deportees are being and (b) how much of a threat they pose. Even the most angelic of children will ask for a drink and to use the toilet 16 times between their scheduled bedtime and actually falling asleep. | |||

"The left losing their mind over countries acting in their national interest. Get used to it fellas ! The deportations are legal. No argument there. How is it acting in national interest to deny someone using the toilet? " Who has claimed they couldn't take a dump ? The criminals being kicked out and their home countries looking for an excuse not to accept them. | |||

"Don't see anything wrong with returning 'illegals' tbh. It's what we in the UK should be doing instead of sitting on our hands for a decade gormlessly watching our borders being violated. As for the mode of transport, does it really matter? If returnees are unruly, then yes handcuffs will be used for everybody's safety. Were they unruly then? Why didn’t they have access to drinking water or bathrooms (per reports)? Do they have no rights at all? It's usual to see deportees cuffed on flights - I've seen it myself on long haul flights (usually the back rows of the aircraft). The reasons are pretty obvious. Yes, they should have access to water and toilets consistent with their needs. Very much doubt these were withheld tbh. As for their rights, perhaps they should have thought of that when they illegally entered another country. Reports so far were no water and no access to bathrooms, I’d be happy to see anything to the contrary and weigh up the truth. Well perhaps the inconvenience of a few hours thirst and holding a pee will deter migrants from violating another country's border. Frankly, the UK should have been taking this kind of action long ago. There’s really nothing they could do that same won’t defend, eh? Question of degree. Denied water and toilet (if true) is hardly the torture chamber eh? Basic human rights, are they not? Well yes, but need we shed tears over the rights of law breakers? What about the rights of their victims? There's no such thing as a victimless crime right? I’d expect the foremost western society on the planet to treat deportees with a degree of humanity - I don’t think that’s too much to expect. " 'foremost western society' LOL that wouldn't be my definition. Most powerful maybe, but not foremost. I can live with a 'degree of humanity', but not much more given their illegal activities. | |||

"Certainly looks like ICE are putting in the work " Trouble is the cock ups have already started. ICE agents recently grabbed an American citizen - a military veteran - the reason given was that he "looked hispanic". He was handcuffed and threatened and was not believed as he had no ID on him. Also they did not have a warrant for the raid. The raid was at a factory and workers rather than criminals were rounded up. There may be a case for a more robust policing of the immigration situation in the states but acting like the Gestapo is not the way forward. | |||

"I love that France has said perhaps they and other EU countries should station soldiers / planes / ships there to boost its defence lol " Well why not Europe and the uk can't keep it's borders open indefinitely allowing millions of people to enter their country of choice, otherwise what's the point of borders and passports? | |||

Well that is debatable if you are referencing the poll that was conducted that said 85% said no to becoming part of the US?

"Mexico caves in within a day and agrees to new border controls and supervision. Looks like a clear Trump win." Mexico got what they wanted which is finally a commitment to put in a proper effort and stop illegal guns coming across the border from the us (Mexico actually fully wants the anti trust exemption for gun manufacturers removed) If it was a full win why is everything on hold for a month? I think Trump has misjudged the Canada situation badly… all of his comments and the tariffs has brought the nation together and given Trudeau some rest bite! so we will see what the off ramp is, and he will claim the win! | |||
