You also have to consider how sad this is for the families - they pack up and leave their home at the
promise from the UK government of having a better life here. Some get good jobs, but others do not and live a life of poverty in inner city areas. They have kids who grow up with little hope and less support, and some get groomed by gangs with
promises of a better life byselling drugs. The outcome, their kids get sent back "home" with nothing, to nobody, with even less hope and support they started with.
It probably happens the other way sometimes, but not so much. People go and live in abroad, have kids. Parents die, kids commit a petty crime, then get deported to the UK with nothing - starting out homeless in London doesn't lead to much these days.
We deported a man because he accountant made a mistake on a tax return. We, as in the UK, really are heading in a bad direction at the moment.
A recent case of young British children that were taken to Jamaica, abandoned by parents, now being deported to the UK after 20 years - no money, no family, no hope of work.

But, you can't have your cake and eat it, so you need to support this and ensure they receive every welfare payment available to support them and give them a home here.
