Priti Patel is threatening to X-ray migrants suspected of lying about their age and impose visa penalties on countries that do not cooperate with deportations of their own citizens, under newly announced plans.
The nationality and borders bill would give the government the power to use “scientifically verifiable” measurements of bones or take DNA samples to check the age of people who are seeking to live in the UK.
