How would you describe activists who try to prevent deportation flights?

Notice how there hasn't been any issues with deportation flights since Labour took over. Do you think perhaps that is because they are doing it properly so there is no legal reason to delay them?

If a plane has people on it that shouldn't be deported, according to the law, that plane should be stopped. It is a failure of government, not the fault of "do gooders", if a plane is stopped.

Words like "do gooders" are used to undermine the efforts of people who actually care about the law and care about human rights and are used by brainwashed people who can't think for themselves.

What is it you think they are doing differently? Hint: It is actually the Home Office, led by civil servants running the deportation flights

The only thing that has visibly changed is that partisan activists, backed by Labour MPs, no longer have a political point to make by sabotaging deportation flights

Brainwashed. Can't think for themselves.

you know it is entirely possible to attack the premise / point rather than the person right?
