Reform UK’s pledge to build new detention centres for people awaiting deportation in areas that vote for the Green Party has been branded “grotesque” by rival parties. Nigel Farage’s party also promised that none of the hubs would open in places with a Reform council or MP if the party wins the next election. Instead, it said, it would “prioritise” sending migrants to Green-held areas because Zack Polanski’s party supports “open borders”.
