## Resource

A controversial “one in, one out” asylum deal between the UK and France is unraveling, with hundreds—including at least 41 disputed-age children—vanishing after being sent back to France. The program, set to expire October 1, faces mounting criticism as human rights groups report widespread disappearances and psychological trauma among returned seekers. While the UK pushes to extend and expand the agreement, France demands broader European cooperation—and insists only 200 of those sent back remain reachable. Independent monitors reveal nearly 100 children were unlawfully detained as adults, and the Home Office denies sending underage kids back despite evidence to the contrary. As uncertainty grows, asylum seekers face fear, isolation, and devastating mental health consequences. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
