Written Answers
People Smuggling: Deportation
Asked by: Lord Swire (Conservative - Life peer)
Monday 27th April 2026

Question to the Home Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have, if any, to (1) expel Dilshad Shamo and Ali Khdir from the UK following their sentencing on 10 April for involvement in people smuggling, and (2) permanently revoke any rights they have to live in or visit the UK in the future.

Answered by Lord Hanson of Flint - Minister of State (Home Office)

The Government’s top priority remains the safety and security of the United Kingdom and its citizens.

The Home Secretary has the power to deprive an individual of British citizenship where it was obtained by fraud, or where deprivation is conducive to the public good.

Deprivation on conducive grounds is used only for individuals who pose a threat to the UK or whose conduct is considered to involve very high harm, for example activities relating to national security (including terrorism and espionage), war crimes, serious and organised crime, or extremism and the glorification of terrorism.

The Government does not comment on individual cases or on operational activity however any referrals the Home Office receives relating to serious organised crime are subject to thorough investigation and decisions on deprivation are taken on a case-by-case basis.

Baroness Harman and Gordon Brown
Asked by: Lord Swire (Conservative - Life peer)
Tuesday 26th May 2026

Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what vetting procedures were undertaken prior to the appointments of Gordon Brown as the Prime Minister’s Special Reviewer on Global Finance and Cooperation, and Baroness Harman as the Prime Minister's Adviser on Women and Girls.

Answered by Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

It is a longstanding principle maintained across multiple administrations not to comment on individuals’ security clearance.
