The Home Office finally backed down and Emily is staying where she belongs. They tried to tear this family apart but they failed because we refused to let them win. Stay ready because we will be watching their every move from here on out.

Emily Mpukusa and her two young children are facing deportation Emily has lived in the UK for over 10 years her two children have only ever known the UK. And I believe that, any disruption, particularly, having to move to another country, could be very upsetting and unsettling, possibly even cause long term damage. The children’s farther has fought for this country in Iraq and Afghanistan.Emily is a very devoted mother who has worked extremely hard to offer a good home to her children Both children are settled and attend the same school. They enjoy school and it is clear that they are very happy children living in a very stable environment. Any disruption, particularly, having to move to another country, could be very upsetting and unsettling, possibly even cause long term damage. Emily is working very hard to build a life for her and her two children. Emily is a Deaconess at the local Seventh day Adventist church. Is well liked and well respected within the local community. Also Emily hopes to be able to complete an accountancy course. Emily is an asset, not only to her community, but to the UK. Please could you sign the online petition as soon as possible. Thanks you

The Home Office thinks they can just tear this family apart without anyone noticing but they are dead wrong. I am spending every waking hour putting pressure on these bureaucrats to recognize Emily as the essential community member she is. Do not let these monsters get away with destroying children's lives for the sake of their heartless quotas.

The Home Office thinks they can quietly rip this family apart but the tide is turning against their cruelty. This momentum is proof that people refuse to let Emily and her children be treated like political collateral.

This country focus so much on children and their wellbeing, but here you are wanting to send this family to a country that provides less apportunity for children. This is a family that deserves a chance to continue what they are doing and build a life here in the UK.

I know Emily personally as a very good friend and a very devoted mother. she is a very humble and cheerful person. Please keep her in UK, she is a great asset and this is the only country her children know and love.

Emily and her children would welcome the opportunity as so many others do to prosper in a foreign country and to give something back to the UK. Her children are progressing well here and it would disrupt the family unit for them to be deported.

this family has settled for all intents and purposes. it will be unnatural and damaging to uproot them. it's been a long time.

I have known Emily and her two children for two years. She is an upright member of the community and her children deserve to stay here as this country is their home. They have no other home than England. She is a valuable mover of the community and she needs to be given another chance as she has so much to offer to this country

Please do not use immigration as a political tool. These are real people and the consequences of deporting them would be severe.

Emily is well loved by her church family and community she's around. Emily should say in the UK, so that she can ensure her children get the best opportunity and education there is without disrupting there surrounding and lifestyle to what her children now know.
