"Behind the technical language of “partnerships” and “migration management” lies a harsher reality: sudden removals, separated families, and weakened legal protections for deportees.

In this edition of The Insight Vodcast, we speak with Frey Lindsay of Statewatch to explain what the EU wants from Nigeria, how this deportation system operates, and why it matters far beyond Europe’s borders."
