Batista v Secretary of State of the Home Department [2010] EWCA Civ 896; [2010] WLR (D) 233

“When considering whether a decision to deport a national of the European Economic Area (‘EEA’) was proportionate, the court should ask itself whether members of the deportee’s family would move to the country of origin with the deportee and whether it was reasonable to expect them to do so, rather than to ask whether there were ‘insurmountable obstacles’ to them moving.”
