In November 2023, Hannah Gaffey on her flight to Kingston, Jamaica witnessed what she believed to be a deportation. After standing with other passengers to stop the plane taking off, the passenger then unknown to her was removed from the flight along with the 6 security personnel that were attempting to restrain him across the back row of a packed flight full of holiday makers.

In this episode we'll be talking about the deportation, the hounding from the tabloid media and the key board warriors who sent death threats. We discuss the current rise of the far right following the events of this summer and the way in which immigration has been used as a political tool especially in the last year.

TW: sexual violence, rape, death threats.
