A NUMBER of Jamaican nationals who have lived in Britain since childhood have been detained and are expected to be deported in the coming weeks, the Morning Star has learnt.
The move appears to reverse a previous deal between the Home Office and Jamaican authorities not to remove nationals who arrived in Britain under the age of 12.
The Jamaican High Commission confirmed to the Morning Star that the deal was specific to a charter flight in December 2020, the last round of deportations to Jamaica.
