Deport him and replace him with a Romanian who can use sand as an art form.

Deportation of Carl Jordan

Something feels wrong here. There isn't enough information, why is he being deported? Did he commit a crime? Why hasn't he qualified for residency if he isn't a citizen? How did he pay NI without citizenship if that's the case? What steps have already been taken and why wasn't residency status taken into account?
In my experience, if something comes across as inexplicable it's usually because the circumstances haven't been explained fully. There's nowhere near enough information here to make a judgement and there's no way it is as simple a case as made out.

Which is why I haven't signed.
His mother is British. Why doesn't he have dual nationality?

Not sure about back in the UK but my sister was three when we came over here in 1978 and she's British with a permanent resident status (like the rest of us). You have to apply for dual nationality or Canadian citizenship.

If he wasn't born in the UK before 1983 he isn't automatically a UK citizen regardless of his mother's nationality

So he's had 53 years to do this:
Children born abroad to British mothers before 1983[edit]
There are two paths through which children of British mothers and children of British fathers born abroad before 1983 can acquire a passport, and the differences have a bearing on costs. Children of British mothers born before 1983 may require a nationality registration fee, which (as of 22 November 2010) is free (although they must pay £80 for a citizenship ceremony). They also must undergo a background check into their eligibility and be of "good character" and attend the citizenship ceremony.[10]
Why would you not get it done before say getting married or having kids or getting a job? And why doesn't he just do it now?

It's the same here in Oz, so many ex pats have Permanent Resident status however do not realise that it can be revoked. There is a friend of a friend of mine who is going through this scenario at the moment, he was caught up in some altercation in the City and been charged, apparently it's his second time and has been advised if found guilty he will be deported. Obviously he can appeal but it's a situation that does arise. He's lived here for over 30 yrs and has family and kids.
I don't understand the people who choose to live in a country, base their whole lives there with their family and don't want to become a citizen of that country. I guess that is a whole different debate.

I agree. Would like to see a full explanation as well. There's definitely more to this than what's been explained in three paragraphs.
