    It seems like bullshit that they won’t even assess the couple for fitness to adopt the baby. Sure they forged paperwork, but unless they did something else, I don’t see how that disqualifies them.

      Straight from the article: “But a social worker from the Children and Family Court Advisory Service CAFCASS said she believed Lucy had been neglected, underfed and under stimulated.”

      And even if they weren’t abusing the baby, forging documents is more than enough reason to prevent someone from immigrating.
