She could have just said the truth..
Mauritius isn't India or Pakistan..we don't rape women whenever we want to!
It's a disgrace to let people stay on pure lie. Mauritius is a safe country. If everybody come and say they want to claim asylum and given right to stay on fake then it would be unfair. It's been six years now. Hopefully she has grown up on her mind and education and be sincere in life.
speaking about immigration. yes this lady ha a no right to stay in the UK despite different appeal made. it the UK land. but how about the chagos is that your land???. so when time comes to vacate the chagos u make deaf ears Mr the minister.how about the people that has been uprooted from their motherland!!!. you should be deported too.
Wait a minute. They don't mind terrorists public calling for their prime ministers head and allow terrorists come back from Syria and Turkey, so they could kill more of their citizens but not allow an innocent immigrant stay?
she is not a kid. she is an adult. all the family is deported forย GOOD REASON as they are liars and pain in the uk economy
While I have some sympathy for the girl due to her education being disrupted, the fact is they were caught overstaying a tourist visa and only claimed asylum after being caught, on the pathetic excuse that they were fleeing an abusive relative. Firstly, if that were true, it isn't a reason to move halfway across the world. Maybe across the country at worst. Secondly, the school has a case to answer as to why they enrolled her when she was here illegally without checking whether she was here legally. And thirdly, if her claim had been accepted, the UK would have relinquished its ability to refuse entry to anyone on Earth, as anyone could come here and apply for asylum on the basis that ย they were "fleeing an abusive relative", citing this case as a precedent.
People in power with no concern for their fellow human-beings, should be removed from their posts.
I'm sorry for the girl, but we need to tackle all immigration. We can't let everyone stay even if we wanted to, it would wreck the system even further. Good luck to her though
UK is letting dirty-minded radicals in, and deporting innocents out
It sounds stupid
This is disgusting. I still don't know how the immigration people sleep at night. They're sick sick people.ย
See ya! Bye bye.
