A Home Office deportation flight to Jamaica took off today with only seven out of the 112 people expected to be on board.
Tory Minister Tom Pursglove blamed "last minute" legal claims for the low numbers aboard the flight in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
Deportation flights to Jamaica have proved controversial as some people have lived in the UK since they were children or have connections to the Windrush generation, who came to Britain in the 1950s and 60s from Caribbean countries.
