The offenders have racked up combined jail terms of 1,400 years.

They include a man sentenced to seven years for manslaughter and another convicted of sexual exploitation, who got ten years in jail.

The Con Air flights come after Home Secretary Priti Patel announced a shake-up of the asylum and immigration system.

She wants foreign lags removed faster and a block on meritless asylum claims clogging up the system.

Expansion of the Early Release Scheme could also mean cons being removed up to a year before the end of their sentence.

Figures show there are more than 9,850 overseas lags in UK prisons, more than a tenth of the jail population.

There is also a record 10,373 free to live in the country after being released.

Ms Patel said: “I will continue to remove such appalling criminals from our country.

“Those who come and abuse our values should be in no doubt of my determination to remove them.”
