Reform UK Pauses Plans to Deport Child Migrants. Reform UK has stepped back from plans to deport children under its newly announced mass deportation policy. While Zia Yusuf, a key architect of the scheme, had suggested unaccompanied minors could be deported later in the proposed five-year plan, leader Nigel Farage confirmed this is not part of the party’s first-term agenda. The policy would target more than 650,000 adults living in the UK illegally, including future asylum seekers arriving via small boats. Central to the plan is the intention to bypass international treaties, such as the 1951 Refugee Convention, that limit deportations to unsafe countries. Farage emphasized that women and children are “not being discussed at this stage,” although adult women without children may still be considered. The party says it is still evaluating the best approach for families, making clear that children already in the UK are not a priority for removal.
