For the third time in less than two years, a 'charter flight' left RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire on 12 February carrying 38 Iraqi-Kurdish asylum seekers, who had been rounded up and arrested across the UK, to Erbil, Kurdistan (Northern Iraq).
AMNESTY have said that forcing people back to Iraq will put people's lives at risk and they remain opposed to any forcible return of asylum-seekers to Iraq, including to the Kurdish region.
What message do we send out when we return people to a hell-hole that every sane person wants our own troops out of?
Maybe those who deport for political reasons should take time to look at the impact their actions have on these poor souls.
