Suella Braverman today visited Manston, the overcrowded immigration centre in Kent that has become a symbol of the"broken" asylum system she is under increasing pressure to fix., which is designed to hold 1,600 people for a matter of days but has been used to house around 3,500 people for weeks.
"The home secretary was in Dover to receive an update on operations on the ground. That obviously involved operations in the Channel. She travelled on a military aircraft to see the area of operations at sea," a Number 10 spokesperson said.at the Western Jet Foil processing centre in Dover on Sunday.
Asked whether he was happy that asylum seekers were being detained illegally, he told Sky News:"Obviously not. None of us are comfortable with it. We want it tackled, we want to get a grip, that's exactly what the home secretary is focused on." "We do plan to negotiate similar deals with other countries, akin to the Rwanda partnership, but it's not helpful for us to comment on speculation around potential discussions," she said.No one is 'comfortable' with the situation at Manston
