This Made Me Cry. Should He Be Deported Or In Your Opinion?

[Henrietta]

I just saw this on the news and he's never claimed benefits and is looked after his family here.

I'm not sure whether he has family back home or not.

Couldn't his family here officially adopt him or care for him?

Do you think that he should stay or go?

[Baldric]

I have to ask, why after 17 years is he deemed to be here illegally?

[naomi24]

I don't understand this. Why are his brothers not being kicked out too?

[agchristie]

I don't get it either....

[marval]

He should be allowed to stay.

[baza]

We keep the scum and yet try to deport this man?

[Mamyalynne]

There is a petition here,if anyone wishes to sign it.

Of course he should stay.

[agchristie]

It somehow seems that half the story is missing...

[naomi24]

ag, I agree.

[Baldric]

Baza and Marvel, you seem to have got more from the story than I/we have, what is the reason he should stay, and in the interest of fairness why do they want him sent back?

[sandyRoe]

Could it be that his brothers regularised their position in the UK while this man, being a ward of his parents, didn't?

[sandyRoe]

There's little to like, a poor man who's going to be crushed by bureaucracy.

[gness]

Thanks, Mamya...x

[agchristie]

Mr Cable has a strong opinion, he must have more leads...

[naomi24]

He's a wiry one - one might even say a bright spark!

[agchristie]

^ ha!

Initially Mr Chourey had his application to remain in the UK refused.

[baza]

We keep crims who use Human Rights laws to dodge being deported and yet this man appears to be an easy target, pity he is not gay with a cat.
