'A loving father will no longer be torn apart from his family, thanks to a campaign by The Argus.

'Immigration bosses have announced a U-turn on the decision to deport father-of-three Phil Sommerville back to Australia.

'... Phil said: “It’s a slightly bittersweet moment because we might have to go through the same thing again in two years.
“We have lost nearly a year of our lives because of this and it’s cost us a fortune because I haven’t been able to work.
“But for now it’s just a huge relief and the kids are overjoyed."'
