Rwanda flight protesters gather at deportation centre

Reporter

Human rights activists have been demonstrating at a detention centre near Gatwick Airport against the government’s plans to send asylum seekers on a one-way ticket to Rwanda.

The policy is aimed at deterring people from crossing the English channel and the first flight is due to take off on Tuesday, after a legal challenge failed in the high court on Friday.
