Any foreign national who comes to our country and abuses our hospitality by breaking the law should be in no doubt of our determination to deport them. More than 41,000 Foreign National Offenders have been removed from the UK since 2010, and in the 2016/17 financial year over 6,300 were removed.

The table attached provides the requested information for the calendar year 2017.
