UK Set to Boost Detention Centre Beds to Speed Up Deportations

The Home Office is flexing its muscles with bold plans to ramp up detention capacity across the UK. The goal? To fast-track the removal of thousands more illegal migrants and foreign criminals every year.

Big Bed Boost at Campsfield Immigration Prison

Campsfield Immigration Removal Centre is at the centre of the government’s crackdown. Officials have confirmed a major increase in bed spaces there. This means more detainees can be locked up as they await deportation.

A Home Office spokesperson said: “Increased bed spaces at Campsfield will ensure that more illegal migrants can be held in the facility until their removal from the country.”
