MIGRANT groups are launching nationwide protests this weekend to demand an end to Britain’s “brutal” immigration system, 10 years since the death of Jimmy Mubenga. 

Mubenga, an Angolan national, died on October 12, 2010, after his head was held down and his breathing restricted by G4S deportation guards on a British Airways flight.

The guards were cleared of manslaughter in 2014.
