You three regular readers will know what I think about the decision here. It may be legal but where is the sense in it? However, it may well go all the way to the Lords yet so I live in hope.
What is worth going into is the cost. Nine men and their families. Trial, benefits, etc. Somewhere between £20 and £30 million. The casual error margin of £10 million suggests it is a rough and ready assessment. The figure of £4.5 million is stated as due to the trial. We have seen the sort of administrative cock-up the Home Office made of potential deportees. What comfort can we have of their efficiency here? And elsewhere as yet still covered up?
