🇬🇧 In June 2025, around 20,000 foreign criminals were still living freely in Britain despite being subject to deportation proceedings, according to The Times.
Particular difficulties are observed for certain nationalities: 37 Nigerians were deported out of 773 waiting, and 24 Jamaicans out of 775. These figures do not represent a direct deportation rate, as some removals are carried out upon release from prison and others are electronically monitored.
The government plans to tighten the procedures, especially for those sentenced to more than 12 months in prison.
