AF (Jamaica) v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2009] EWCA Civ 240; [2009] WLR (D) 112
“In considering whether it was consistent with the right to respect for family life to require the wife and children of a man whose deportation had been ordered to accompany him in deportation the court should look at the issue from the point of view of the wife and children and not just of the potential deportee. It was not enough that there were no insuperable obstacles to their moving because the ultimate test was one of proportionality.”
