Council 'horrified' over scheme for immigrants to go

[Dennis the 'Bloody Peasant']

A council leader has said he is "absolutely horrified" over government plans to drive vans through his borough with adverts calling on illegal immigrants to leave.
Brent's Muhammed Butt said the plan was an "act of desperation" and that more needed to be done to process people's claims.
He added it would "just drive people underground".
The Home Office said the scheme was an alternative to criminal procedures.
The vans will drive through Barnet, Hounslow, Barking and Dagenham, Ealing, Brent and Redbridge.
Leaflets, posters and messages in local newspapers will also be used to urge illegal immigrants to return home.
They will all feature a text number they can message to arrange a return.
The scheme costs just under £10,000, which is cheaper than forcibly removing someone. That process costs about £15,000.

I don't know what they hope to achieve by this, other than drumming up paranoia about the number of "illegal" immigrants in the country. If someone has risked their life to get into this country, as illegal immigrants often do, they're not going to phone someone to get sent back to their home country. People come to this country for a reason.
