THE Manston immigration processing camp opened in February on the site of former RAF barracks in Kent.
Built originally to house around 1,000 asylum-seekers for up to 24 hours while a decision was made whether to detain or release, the camp was seen as a significant upgrade to the Port of Dover’s chaotic Tug Haven site.
For around six months, the system worked as intended, with “outflow” — the number of people leaving — matching “inflow.”
