Under the Trump administration, the US has intensified its deportation efforts, making deals with third countries to accept deported non-citizens. Similarly, Australia has enacted new powers to deport migrants to states with no prior connections. The UK has also seen a rise in deportations, with Labour's recent policies reflecting a shift towards harsher immigration enforcement. This trend is characterized by the criminalization of migration, where seeking asylum is increasingly viewed as a criminal act. Legal frameworks have been altered to expedite deportations, often bypassing procedural fairness. The expansion of these practices has instilled fear in communities and emboldened far-right groups. Grassroots movements are emerging in response, advocating for a more humane approach to migration and opposing authoritarian policies.
