Not a Person of Credit

Never let it be said that the minions of Mad Tessie May are entirely lacking in compassion: a half-blind nonagenarian widow with heart trouble has been magnanimously granted the opportunity to prove beyond reasonable doubt that she is unfit for deportation. The Home Office had planned to throw her out of the country as part of the continuing war on health tourism, which the Secretary for Health and News Corporation has done so much to abet by undermining the fifth column that is the National Health Service's junior doctors. However, the swarming migrant in question is white and her native country is not officially a war zone, so the Home Office evidently felt that the 3am courtesy call by Kevlar-clad transfer incentivisation personnel might for once be considered a little tactless. Nevertheless, it remains clear that the lady is not a "person of credit" like Lord Crosby of Deadcat or the divine Rupert, and also that her application for continuing residence contained a blatant untruth: she is in fact a whole year younger than was claimed. Presumably the Home Office plan, if plan is the word for mentation among the minions of Mad Tessie May, is to kick her out quietly once the fuss has died down.
