“The removal of a foreign national from the United Kingdom was unlawful, as incompatible with the United Kingdom’s obligations under art 8 of the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, if it would amount to a flagrant breach of her right to respect for her family life so as to completely deny or nullify that right in the destination country.”
