A violent drug dealer, who has been granted anonymity by the courts, dodged deportation as his daughter thought she might be transgender[/caption]The dad of three, granted anonymity by the courts, was convicted of dealing crack and heroin and also attacked his partner in front of his kids.
He was jailed for three-and-a-half years in 2021 — his fifth spell in prison since arriving in the UK in 1991.
Known only as “GH”, he appealed against a Home Office deportation order after his release.
His lawyers argued one of his children “became withdrawn” when he was in jail and “continued to struggle even after his release”.
They added: “The same child was experiencing issues with her gender identity, which she had only been able to discuss with her father.”
Judge CL Taylor controversially ruled GH should remain.
She said his right for a family life outweighed public interest under the European Convention on Human Rights.
The Home Office then unsuccessfully appealed against the decision at a hearing in London.
Reform MP Rupert Lowe blasted last night: “If you come to our country and commit serious crime, you should be deported.
“We do not care about the criminal’s right to a family life.”
Former Tory minister Sir Alec Shelbrooke added: “I am stunned by how poor a decision this is.
“We have to disentangle British law from the ECHR to stop decisions like these from being made.”

In 2023, Helena said of her career: “I figured I can model for a little bit to travel the world and bring my camera to take photos and just explore and discover.
“The funny part of it is, to me, the modelling for many years was about a great opportunity to learn about photography.”
The model also confessed that she used to buy and wear used men’s underpants.
The brunette said: “I didn’t have fashion magazines, but as a teenager one of my favourite stores was a secondhand one.
“I would buy men’s underwear and ballgowns and pair them together.
“That was my look, it was funny.
“I feel so much joy going into a little store and looking through all these pieces that belonged to somebody else, perhaps many, many decades ago.”

Hoyle said: “Incredibly, Emmerdale has been on our screens for more than half a century – shining a light on the lived experience of others; entertaining viewers with its hard-hitting storylines, while also making a major economic contribution to the North.
“It has been an honour to help the cast celebrate the 10,000th episode of this enduring Yorkshire-based soap, with a visit to the Woolpack.
“As a Lancastrian, I am hugely impressed by the talent and warmth of our friends on ‘the other side’ of the Pennines.”

Scott Thomas’ furious brother Ryan in massive u-turn as he slams Love Island’s Luca in online rant
SCOTT Thomas’ furious brother Ryan has made a massive u-turn about his stance on someone in the villa.
The hunk’s brothers are famous soap actors Ryan Thomas and his twin Adam Thomas – and they both love to share their reactions online of Scott’s Love Island stint.
Ryan Thomas reacted to tonight’s episode in realtime[/caption] Fans were tense as they watched on[/caption]Ryan, who starred in Coronation Street as Jason Grimshaw, is the eldest of the brothers at 40 years old.
While Love Island hunk Scott and Adam, who starred in Emmerdale as Adam Barton, are twins who are both 36 years old.
But it is Ryan who has made a u-turn on his opinion on someone in the villa – Luca Bish.
Just mere days ago we reported that Ryan shared how Luca was his “favourite” Love Island: All Stars contestant when he seemingly snubbed his brother.
Now, after a huge erupted between Scott and Luca, Ryan has branded him “snakey” in a scathing rant shared on Instagram.
“I’m sorry Luca,” Ryan could be heard saying as he sat on the sofa watching Love Island on Sunday night.
“That’s a snakey move, that. That is a snakey move to do that publicly. I am so upset with him,” he fumed.
In the next slide, Ryan said: “This is horrible, you know.”
He then later added: “I’ll be honest, wasn’t very fair that from Luca.
PUBLIC SPAT
“To do it publicly around a table like that, in front of all them people.”
Ryan then said: “Scott’s right, you know. I don’t think there’s any coming back from that.”
“I mean, it is ironic,” Ryan added, “On Friday night I’m going ‘come on, we need some drama’ and our Scott is in the middle of an absolute s***storm.”
This comes after tensions rose during a game of truth or dare when Scott said he’s had a truth he would ask Grace, but wouldn’t.
Luca instantly became annoyed and said: “Say it. If you want to go there, go there?”.

ROW ESCALATED
Scott insisted:“Bro I’m being respectful to you.”
But the row escalated further and the other Islanders were forced to step in.
The group tried to continue playing after the first row, but things take a turn for the worst when Luca was dared to kiss who is in here for fame.
He kissed Scott on the cheek and said he thinks he wants to get far in the villa, adding “that’s why you’re with Tina and you’re not feeling it now”.
CONFIDING IN EACH OTHER
The row came after Scott confided in the boys about how he was really feeling about Tina – who he is coupled up with.
He said: “I dunno where I am… something’s stressing me out a little bit… when she’s in the garden I’m not wanting to rush over… this girl is so good for me and the fact I’m not buzzing p****s me off.”
Luca then said: “You can’t help how you feel, definitely keep that to yourself though.”
Scott agreed: “We’ll make a pact – don’t say anything to our girls cause if that gets back to Tina it needs to come from me.”
