U.K. Lets Criminal Illegal Alien Stay for a Ludicrous Reason, but It's Not Surprising at All

Ever notice how, once in a while, you see one of those news items that makes you facepalm so rapidly and repeatedly that it sounds like a standing ovation at the Royal Albert Hall? Well, get your facepalming mitt warmed up. Over in the United Kingdom, a convicted criminal and illegal alien was allowed to remain in the UK, after a string of offenses and asylum denials. Why is he now being allowed to stay? Because his son doesn't like the chicken nuggets in his native Albania.

Yes, really.

A migrant who fought deportation by arguing his son disliked foreign chicken nuggets has won the right to stay in Britain.
The case of convict Klevis Disha, 39 – who entered Britain illegally under a false name and lied in a failed asylum claim – sparked outrage when it emerged a year ago.
Critics cited it as a stark example of abuse of the European Convention on Human Rights. The Home Office talked tough, pressing to have him expelled – which should have been a formality as he was jailed for two years in 2017.
But despite the outcry he has won his appeal against removal.
His barrister Richard McKee successfully argued it would be 'unduly harsh' for his son, 11, to have to join his father in Albania, or be left in Britain without him.

Seriously? The kid won't eat the chicken nuggets in Albania, so his criminal father is allowed to stay in the once-Great Britain? That's inexplicable. It's insane. Send Disha and his offspring back; the kid will learn to appreciate Albanian chicken nuggets a little more after he's had nothing else on offer for a few weeks. Also, are chicken nuggets the only thing this little brat eats? A ten-second search of the interwebs revealed a variety of traditional Albanian foods, and frankly, some of them look delicious. It's not as though the kid will starve if sent back with his old man.

Here's what Disha did to bring him to the attention of the authorities, other than entering the UK illegally:

In September 2017, Disha was given a two-year jail sentence after being caught with £250,000 in cash, determined to be the proceeds of crime when he could not account for its origins. The sentence of more than a year meant he should be deported.

OK, well, it's not as though he was robbing jewelry stores with an axe, but still, it's suspicious - certainly enough to warrant deportation, since he was in the UK illegally. Did I mention that he was in the UK illegally? Because he was in the UK illegally. Now he has been granted right to remain because his son is fussy about his chicken nuggets.

Look, here's the thing: I intended to write about this story so I could engage in some light parody of the stupidity of these kinds of feather-headed immigration authorities. But, I have to say, this one parodies itself. There's literally nothing I could write that would make this any more bizarre than it already is.

Bear in mind, as we grow ever closer to this fall's elections, that this is precisely the kind of mushy-headed policies and decisions that will return to our own immigration system, should the Democrats ever succeed in regaining the majority. Think on that, and tremble!

Editor’s Note: Thanks to President Trump, illegal immigration into our great country has virtually stopped. Despite the radical left's lies, new legislation wasn't needed to secure our border, just a new president.
