Tui Deportation of Asylum Seekers : A protest in Nottingham against TUI’s involvement in deporting refugees.

A protest in Nottingham against TUI’s involvement in deporting refugees. This comes as part of a wider demonstration across targeting TUI branches across the country. Organisers are voicing their concern at TUI being the main airline involved in the Home Office’s “brutal deportations scheme”.
A coordinator said : “TUI are currently the main airline running deportation flights for the home office deportations. These often involve lots of human rights violations. In the past the Home Office has used Virgin and BA, most of whom have since ceased or drastically reduced their involvement because of pressure from activists. Since November 2020 TUI has been the main airline involved, running nine mass deportation charter flights in November alone. It is believed that 21 have been run so far this year”.
