Children are being held overnight in "degrading" conditions at Heathrow Airport, a watchdog has warned. The airport independent monitoring board (IMB) said facilities at the airport were "wholly unsuitable". "The UK Border Agency (UKBA) has again failed in its duty to treat everyone in its care in Heathrow holding rooms with decency," the watchdog's report said. BBC News, 18 April 2011
