Rejected petition Increase deportations of illegal immigrants to five flights per day

I want the Government to significantly increase the number of deportation flights for those entering the country illegally. I am calling for a minimum of five planes a day to be used to return people to their home countries or a safe third country.

More details

I believe the current system is unfair to legal residents and those struggling with housing and services. By not deporting those here illegally, we are putting too much pressure on the UK's infrastructure. I want the Government to prioritize the safety and needs of its own citizens by ensuring that the law is enforced strictly through daily deportation flights.
