A system that’s not fit for purpose
After her visit to Yarl’s Wood Immigration detention centre, Diane Abbott was appalled by the inhuman conditions faced by the women held there as part of Theresa May’s infamous “hostile environment” policy nonsense
Shadow home secretary Diane Abbott and shadow attorney general Shami Chakrabarti during a visit to Yarl's Wood Immigration detention centre in Bedfordshire.

In February, I went to Yarl’s Wood Detention Centre after a year of asking the Home Office to be allowed to visit some of the most vulnerable women in their care and control.
 

Yarl’s Wood is on the outskirts of Clapham, Bedfordshire, and is a place where foreign nationals who may be subject to deportation are held. It is one of 13 such centres currently in Britain.

Having tried to arrange a visit for some time, I was glad to finally get the opportunity to see the conditions myself, especially as my visit came just after the news that 120 of Yarl’s Wood detainees had begun a month-long hunger strike.
