When the topic of deportation comes up, I often think of a former associate of mine. Some years ago, he had an accident while out exercising and he broke his arm, unfortunately. He went to hospital to get treatment and, naturally, his immigration status was checked. Sadly, he had overstayed his visa and, out of pride, he had never discussed it with anyone or asked for help. He was arrested at the hospital, detained, and a few days later was deported. This was not under the Immigration Act 1964; this was under the Immigration Act 2009—the current one.
