I can't believe that the UK would even contemplate deporting an 8 year old and an 12 year old to Brazil alone. This is the letter the home office sent the 11 year old:
“I am satisfied that there are no serious or compelling reasons to grant you settlement. I am satisfied that you could return to Brazil and continue your education in Brazil where you would have the option to attend an English-speaking school.Whilst this may involve a degree of disruption in family life this is considered to be proportionate to the legitimate aim of maintaining effective immigration control.”
I'm ashamed at the actions of this country.
