“Everybody wants to stay, nobody wants to leave.” Channel 4 News gains exclusive access to US border police and travels with illegal immigrants deported “back home” to Guatemala. In the heat and humidity of a Texan morning a plane idles on the tarmac. This is an airline few will have heard of, but the tickets and meals are free for those flying today. We can see the silhouettes of guards clutching shotguns along the perimeter fence and officers with bullet proof jackets stand waiting for the passengers. From nowhere three prison buses slowly drive towards the plane and stop just a few meters short. We're boarding ICE Air – run by the US government to send hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants back home in the hope that they will stay there. And as the heat rises on the issue of illegal immigration, Channel 4 News has been given exclusive access to the way the United States deals with its illegal immigrants. For one week we see for ourselves the stress and strain on an overworked system and the often futile efforts to deport illegal immigrants many of whom come straight back over the border.
