It was said that Yashika came to the UK from Mauritius in 2011 on a tourist visa to escape domestic violence, and it was only her who was first to be deported, but now the whole family.

Did they also come to this country on a tourist visa or were they already here?

We have all heard of the ECOHR stepping in and preventing such deportations on the grounds of a 'right to family life', but for our National airline and a bunch of school friends stepping in, what is going off?

/// Oh to stay in Mauritius on any visa - I need that sunshine ///

We may not be able to offer all that sunshine, so it seems obvious that we must offer much more lucrative advantages, why else do we have so many from the 'Sunny Climes' settling here?

/why else do we have so many from the 'Sunny Climes' settling here?/

for the same reasons any of us settle here: largely career and lifestyle opportunities

are we all bad for doing that?

it's the same reason many people emigrate from UK to Australia, New Zealand and the USA

If they came here under false pretences they should be sent back home. No excuses. Don't forget all the queues of people in Calais waiting to get here illegally, and now Dave the Brave is inviting the Syrians here too. How many more can we accommodate.

After years of Labour's open door policy, this is just shutting the stable door after the horse has populated the country
