Migrant crisis: 42-year-old Iraqi caught posing as 17-year-old after reaching the UK

Another day another story of an adult migrant posing as a teenager , this time an Iraqi who came over by boat and claimed to be 17 when in fact he's 42 with a long beard and tattoos , not until his fingerprints were checked and after a week housed with children it turned out that not only was he 42 but he's also been flagged as a terrorist by the CIA , so of course he's staying in a hotel now and appealing deportation .... unbelievable ! , but not really.


Former Chief Immigration Officer for UK Border Force, Kevin Saunders, reacts to a 42-year-old Iraqi posing as a 17-year-old after reaching the UK.

Well hey, why not?

Let him identify as a teen if he wants to right?

What ???? There is no way I would pass for 17 at 42. Maybe this terrorist was seriously into skin care and got botox from a young age. Could be his facial hair. Ya... it's probably that?. Also he should be confined to the space which he is at like house arrest at least if they are too kind to jail his lying butt.

Raises questions about the adylum process in my mind -

1. Who signed the order sending this grown up to stay with children?
2. Do they still have a job?
3. If so, can thier manager be fired as well?
4. If not, why not?

I think the answers would be telling.

The CIA flagging someone as a terrorist doesn't mean much anymore. If you speak out at a schoolboard meeting against grooming, or the porno books in their libraries you're labeled a domestic terrorist.

You can demonstrate-even riot if you're with a certain political party and it's ok. If you're with the other party, you're a domestic terrorist.

I hope he doesn't disappear into the crowd before his appeal is resolved and he gets a free ride home.

It's sadly pretty common here in the UK, there's been numerous cases of middle aged men with beards claiming they're as young as 13/14 and going to high school (under 16) for a few weeks before authorities finally see sense (often due to kids exposing it on tiktok after school officials/local authority fail to act).

Man, 30, posed as teen to rejoin his old school for 2 years - and nobody recognised him
