Thirteen dangerous Jamaican criminals have been deported on a flight that left the United Kingdom on Tuesday night, however

more than 35 other offenders escaped removal from the UK after last-minute legal appeals.

The 13 had been convicted of offences earning more than 100 years in jail and included three murderers, a paedophile convicted of grooming a child and four drug dealers.

Chris Philp, the immigration minister, said he was disappointed by the last-minute tactics used by lawyers to block the deportation of the other offenders.

Mr Philip said: “These individuals had every opportunity to raise the claims in the days and weeks leading up to the flight,

“However, a significant number of claims were not submitted until hours before the flight was due to leave – meaning murderers and rapists have been able to stay in the UK.

“Those we are attempting to remove have committed crimes which have a devastating impact on victims and their families.

“We will be working through these cases as quickly as possible. I remain committed to removing foreign criminals and anyone without a legal basis to be here to keep the British public safe, which will always be my number one priority.”

A Home Office source said: “Lefty lawyers are going to spend all evening on the phones to judges in their pyjamas to try to get people who have committed heinous crimes dragged off this flight.”
