British taxpayers will be forced to pay for all travel costs for migrant transfers

Britain will pay the transportation costs for every migrant transferred to and from France, under Keir Starmer’s deal with Emmanuel Macron.

Taxpayers are set to shell out on the new “one-in, one-out” between London and Paris despite fears it will not deter asylum seekers crossing the Channel.

The agreement states: "All transport costs incurred in connection with readmission pursuant to this Agreement shall be borne by the United Kingdom."

Whilst no costs have been revealed, the deal between Starmer and Macron also allows France a veto over who can be returned.

Paris can refuse to take any Channel migrant that poses a “threat to public policy, internal security, public health or the international relations of any of the Schengen States.”

France must give a response within 28 days for each migrant Britain intends to return.

But if the French ignore Britain's requests, the migrants must remain in the UK - even if they have arrived here illegally.

“He really hates his people.”

They ALL hate White people, just about every leader in Europe. The question is whether the Whites there will take matters into their own hands, prior to being exterminated.

No, the costs should be borne by the City of London, that banking cartel responsible for most of the world’s problems.

Our nation should be charging nations that send their criminals and insane people here illegally- charge them not only for the costs of trying them, but for housing, feeding, education (all of which was done under democrats mostly), and charge them for the crimes and associated costs. Bet they would start cracking g down on people leaving those nations then!

Ye Gods.

Stalin, I mean Starmer, may want to look into hiring extra security.

This is going to be WELL received by the Brits. (Major sarcasm}.

And who do we think is already paying the travel costs, the accomodation costs, the food costs, the medical costs, the heating costs, the council tax, the mobile phone costs, the education costs, the translator costs, the administrative costs, the crime costs, the legal costs etc etc etc of these illegals, if not the long suffering British tax-payer?

Britain will be in a Civil War in 3-5 years, and there is nothing that can be done to avoid it.

You do know we’re paying for deportation in the United States big time. I call it long term gain for short term pain. It’s worth every penny we are spending getting illegals out of America. I wonder if some of you think it’s free.

The British people are disarmed. Pretty tough to fight back with sticks and protest signs.
