Why can't we just deport them? Other countries do.

Re: Inmates Offered £1,500 To Quit UK Jails!
If they accept the cash they are in effect volunteering to be repatriated to a jail in their home country, so our government wont have to consider whether they will be tortured and/or murdered when the get back there. They will in effect be forgoing any claim they may have had to 'refugee status'.
I suppose this could cut down a lot of paperwork.

Re: Inmates Offered £1,500 To Quit UK Jails!
Perhaps that there is more to it than just giving them money?

'take it and dont come back' situation and 'sign on the dotted line' to agree to it? There would have to be some form of contract otherwise they'd just be throwing money away.

I think its a good idea, much more cost effective than keeping them in prison here.

How do they get here in first place? Illegal immigrants.. Sneak over, who cares about a contract if you're over illegally anyway?

Isn't the mirror a tabloid paper? They tend to miss out the most of the facts to create public outrage or fear, dependant on what the story is. So you should bear in mind that the actually proposal is probably quite different to whats been said in there.
