An Eritrean man is set to be deported to France on Friday after losing a High Court bid to have his removal under the Government’s “one in, one out” scheme temporarily blocked.

The migrant, who cannot be named, arrived in the UK on a small boat last month and brought a claim against the Home Office on Thursday ahead of his scheduled removal from the UK at 6.15am on Friday.
