have you noticed how Nigel Farage skips straight from Nathan Gill being in UKIP to Nathan Gill being in Reform UK?
not a word about Nathan Gill joining the Brexit Party and being a Brexit Party MEP and GE2019 candidate

This is called “chain refoulment” and it’s illegal under both U.S. and international law. And the State Department and ICE know very well what Ghana is doing and simply don’t care.
ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.
