‘Absolute joke!’ Emily Carver erupts over foreign rapist who avoided deportation because he’s bisexual
GB News host Emily Carver has slammed the decision to allow a foreign rapist to remain in the UK as an “absolute joke”.
Emily fumed at the ruling that prevented the deportation of a Jamaican national due to his bisexuality.
Her comments come after a 41-year-old man, who was sentenced to seven years in prison in 2018 for raping a woman at a party whilst she was sleeping, successfully challenged the deportation order.
Speaking to GB News, immigration barrister Paul Turner said: “The issue, and I looked into the report on this case, The Home Office said that he’d only dated women while in the United Kingdom.
“One has to respect the decision of the court in this case. But there will be a suspicion that he has added on a sexuality claim, knowing full well that if it was accepted by the tribunal, he would be safe from being removed to Jamaica.
“Sadly, if he was to go out and rape another woman or 3 or 4, and I hope he doesn’t, he still wouldn’t be removed to Jamaica.”

Emily Carver fumed: “Absolute joke. I mean, that’s not how things should work. Our human rights in this country should come before a rapist from Jamaica.
“I mean, it is crazy. The Home Office should be allowed to get rid of someone who’s committed violent crimes.”
After serving half his sentence, he was released in June 2021 and handed a deportation order.
The Home Office branded him a “danger to the community” and attempted to deport him under the 2002 Asylum Act.
The man told the tribunal he was brought to the UK in 2001 by a relative after suffering multiple attacks in Jamaica due to his sexuality.
He described being attacked with a “metal bar, machete and dogs” in his home country.
The tribunal also heard claims that an older man he had been in a relationship with was killed for being gay.
The attacks occurred before his arrival in Britain at age 18.
Former security minister Sir John Hayes condemned the tribunal’s decision.
“This is an insult to every victim,” Hayes said. “This man should be thrown out of the country.”
The Home Office expressed disappointment with the court’s ruling.
“We made the case to deport this individual and lost in the courts,” a Home Office spokesperson said.
An application to appeal the decision was declined in November.
