It's a bargain!

Some kid is brought to this country and dumped, through no fault of his, by his father. He's brought up in care and now has the chance to get a profession, be paid well above the average wage and pay loads of tax? What's not to like?

The alternative for most people who grew up in care is at best a life on well below the average wage, more usually a life on benefits, and often a lot of very expensive taxpayer-financed years in jail

All you who are moaning about this, consider how much more than £10,000 was spent on your education and health care before you were old enough to pay tax

We may well get a great return on our investment from this guy
