'Mariam “Harley” Miller, a 48-year-old specialised therapist who lives in south London, was given 28 days’ notice to leave the country by the UKBA after waiting years for a response to an application to stay.

'A posting about her experience on Facebook over the weekend already has more than 1,700 likes and been shared around the world.

'She wrote: “I have been in this country for nine years. In the whole of that time I have worked for the NHS, in the child and adolescent mental health sector, helping young people of this country through sometimes quite severe mental health problems.”...'

'A friend of mine is in love. I recently found out she’s engaged to the man she met years ago, and they are to hold their wedding this year.

Not by her, and not by him but by the UK Border Agency.'
