Story summary
- MP Häkan Svenneling wrote to migration minister Johan Forssell demanding a halt to the deportation of 78-year-old Joyce Thomas.
- Svenneling said Thomas missed the Brexit residency deadline of 31 December 2021 and filed an application in 2023, raising the removal order for 74-year-old Horace (George) Mason, who has dementia.
- The cases pressure Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson’s coalition, while Britain’s Foreign Office says Sweden’s handling breaches EU-UK treaty rights and urges EU action.
