Rejected petition Hendre Fourie

More details

Hendrie Fourie, a South African Rugby player is allegedly to be deported because his work permit has expired due to retirement as a result of injury.

Mr Fourie has represented England at International level, has no doubt supported the Country through considerable income tax and NI contributions from his playing earnings and yet we are trying to deport him.

We retain the likes of Hamza in the Country yet an individual such as Fourie who has made a significant contribution to his community, the Rugby world, the economy and society in general is being forced to leave because of some short sighted jobsworth in the home office.
