Their situation is a cause for concern. There are just 14 bed spaces for women compared to 235 for men. Over the years that we have visited, it has not been unusual for just one or two women to be resident in the centre. This can be particularly isolating and frightening. In a film made by SDV, one woman who had been detained there described it as being “like a chicken surrounded by dogs”. A former detainee recently told me of his disquiet that women were detained in such an environment. He said unwanted attention and remarks from male detainees were commonplace.

. . . some interesting roles were available, such as barbering, most
of the jobs were routine cleaning roles and few had relevance to skills that would be of use
in destination countries. There was a long waiting list for allocation to a work role.

They should be deported on release from prison. After all the authorities would have had enough time to make the arrangements whilst they were serving their time.

I do not think I could have arrived at my final choice unless I had continually kept before my eyes the vision of an endless line of children's coffins with weeping mothers behind them, both English and German, and another line of coffins of mothers with mourning children."
