A newly launched UK Home Office TikTok account has triggered fierce backlash from refugee groups, charities and opposition politicians, after posting dramatic videos of immigration raids and deportations set to ominous music.
The account, @SecureBordersUK, appeared earlier this week with the slogan 'Restoring order and control to our borders' and immediately drew attention for its tone and presentation. Its first videos show people in handcuffs being escorted onto planes, immigration officers carrying out workplace raids, and enforcement teams detaining individuals, ending with the message, 'And it's just getting started.'
