Psychotic Nigerian robber can stay in UK because he believes he is ‘possessed’

The actual tribunal should you not want to indulge the Telegraph –

At least they are getting more inventive with their excuses.

Blindly adhering to age old conventions like they are some religious text will be the death of this country and most of Europe. Both the UN refugee convention and the ECHR are completely not fit for modern times. It’s ridiculous that not a single politician is even trying to amend them.

Alright, at some point soon one of these *has* to be revealed as a hoax. I can’t believe no one has tried slipping a hoax in already tbh. I was *sure* the chicken nuggets one was a hoax, but that turned out to be real. Or the paedophile who can’t be deported because it would stop him from seeing his kids (who he’s prevented from seeing).

Is any parody too far at this point?

Somalian pirate rapist can’t be deported because he hasn’t made up his mind on Marmite yet, and doesn’t believe he will be able to reliably source the yeasty spread back in Mogadishu, and will therefore never decide whether he loves it or hates it.

Afghan serial stabber can’t be deported because he can only buy his favourite brand of knife in the UK, and the courts have declared it an Emotional Support Knife, thereby contravening Article 3 if he’s deported.

North Korean Nuclear Terrorist can’t be deported because he’s “really close” to finishing his dirty bomb, and preventing him from reaching this achievement would have an adverse affect on his mental health.

>After arriving in the UK unlawfully, the appellant applied for asylum on 23 July 2002. This was refused, but he was granted Exceptional Leave to Remain (ELR) to 5 November 2006. The appellant applied for further ELR on 2 October 2006 and it appears that, while the respondent’s internal file shows this as being marked as “void inappropriate”, no decision was communicated to him

So he’s an illegal immigrant, who came here at 13 years old, was denied asylum, but somehow got exceptional leave to remain for 4 years, was then denied when applying to extend that leave and should have left the country, but no-one told him (???) so he stayed. This was in 2006 as well, I thought immigration/asylum stuff was more competently run back then lmao

>The appellant was first convicted of robbery in 2005, 3 years after arriving in the UK, and has subsequently been convicted of the robbery that triggered his deportation order and (later) possession of cocaine with intent to supply

He was then convicted at 16 years old

>The appellant was served with a notice of liability to deportation on 20 February 2012 following his conviction for robbery and possession of an imitation firearm.

Told to leave/be deported (again) in 2012

>The appellant’s representatives made representations to the respondent on 12 March 2012 (within the deadline for doing so), which lead to the appellant’s asylum application being refused, the appellant being served a deportation order, and becoming ‘appeal rights exhausted’ on 13 December 2016.

And he became “appeals rights exhausted” in 2016. 9 years ago. It has been 19 years since his leave to remain expired. This is actually insane to read.

God damn here come the idiots trying to remove our rights. Please people, do your bit to counter this anti-ECHR movement before it bites us in the ass. These rights are the only thing protecting so many British citizens. People died for these rights. Don’t let grifters take them away from us.

From reading, this was over a decade ago. He has severe mental health sisues and seems to sincerely be working towards being a better eprson. Volunteering once a week, been through a mental hospital and on medication. Poor guy. He acknowledged he isn’t possessed but had been hearing voices.

That’s why reform are going to smash it at next election

I guess hats off to the telegraph for chipping away at the echr with cherry picked cases that the tide of opinion here has fully turned

Firstly, why are there a slew of ‘deportation cases’ coming out from 2004, 2006, 2011, etc, now? These are old news stories, but they’re surfacing all this now?

Secondly, it references the European Court of Human Rights as being responsible for not being able to deport this man. That’s true here, and it’s true everywhere in Europe where the ECHR applies (everywhere except Russia and Belarus where they actively choose not to sign up to it). It happens in Germany, in Sweden, in France, in anywhere else we feel is ‘civilised’.

These guys (right wing) want to remove the human rights from this particular individual and anyone else coming into the country. But they also want to remove ***your*** human rights, and your loved ones human rights, and the whole nation of the UK’s human rights. They’ll do it exactly the same way Priti Patel said Brexit would “end freedom of movement for foreigners”; by getting us angry at foreigners, and omitting the part where it would impact us… This rhetoric is dangerous – don’t believe we’re doing nothing, because we’re complying with international law that keeps you and yours safe from exploitative forces that’d have you working 24 hours a day for nothing.

If you want to see change, contact your local mp’s and state you want to see this changed

He can stay because his lawyers argued their case and found grounds that held merit.

They haven’t made special accomodations for this individual, just followed the law and his rights.

The judiciary that enable some of these decisions are breathtakingly dense

How many more of these bullshit rage bait stories can one newspaper print?
