mutopian Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 Excellent news. Congrats to all of those involved in the campaign. Hopefully Sakchai will be able to get back to some sort of normality now and get on with his life in Shetland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derick Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 Excellent decision today. Really good! let's hope the Home Office now has both the sense not to appeal, and the good grace to make this known as soon as possible. Wonder how many other people are in the situation Sakchai was in? Maybe this is an odd thing to say, but I have a feeling of powerlessness, in that it is not possible to help those others, if they exist? Anyway - aa da best, Mr M.

This website was posted in an earlier post - it makes very interesting reading and highlights a good number of immigration cases: http://www.ncadc.org.uk/index.htm I am trying to remember who posted it... my memory is relatively rubbish though - I'll post when/if I remember.

peeriesooky Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 Maybe this is an odd thing to say, but I have a feeling of powerlessness, in that it is not possible to help those others, would u hae allowed onywan to hae dis kinda defeatist attitude when it came tae sakchai? whit happened to carrying on the momentum of dis fight tae help others in similar situations etc? dis sounds an awful lot like backtracking oot o dat kinda commitment now dat sumwan u ken has been "saved". if they exist? and are u seriously assuming dat Sakchai was da only person dat dis happened to? I may have taken dis wrang, but dat is what it soonds lik. tho thankfully dere have bin a few folk already on here sounding da rallying call for ithers in need, and long may dat sentiment continue. 1 down, how many mair to go? 8O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 Welcome home Satch! Knew that government would see sense in the end! We will catch you for a drink and a spik when we all get back from Australia but just know we have been thinking about you the whole time that we have been here. Great to hear you are free, we had our own little celebration in Tasmania at 1am last night. We will have another dram tonight with my Aunt tonight in melbourne. DavieG will probably be writing his own piece so will leave it to him. All the best for now and see you soon mate Love Richie, Mikey, Arlene and Davie.
