UK-France 'one in, one out' migrant scheme scrapped

This story is from the archive. It was covered between 30 September 2026 and 30 September 2026, and nothing below has been updated since. See what is happening now.

Some 1,500 people have been removed to France since the scheme began just over a year ago.

What the coverage shows

All three outlets frame the story as the scrapping of the UK-France “one in, one out” migrant scheme, with the South China Morning Post and France 24 both stressing that it was a pilot programme aimed at reducing Channel crossings. BBC News stands out by adding that about 1,500 people have been removed to France since the scheme began, a detail not mentioned in the other two extracts. France 24 also uniquely foregrounds the idea that the deal was meant to break smugglers’ business model.
