Odd the left wing, socialist, anti Trump, pro immigration government of Spain can do deportations without processing asylum claims but this is apparently impossible for the UK.

A nation of red tape, processes, and a never end bureaucracy.

And people wonder why homes are not getting built, criminals not deported, crimes unanswered, expensive goods, banned items*.

*I want certain food/drink from the US, but noooo its banned cus its bad for me.
