Mr R Clough (instructed by Hornby & Levy Solicitors) for the Defendant Hearing date: 26 May 2005 ____________________
"9. I do need to go back to Jamaica with [the child] as soon as possible. It is all right [for the father] to say that I should remain in this country, but I have no means of support here. He is not providing me with any money to financially support [the child] and I am not entitled to get any benefit whatsoever. I cannot continue living on people's charity and need to go home. It is not fair for [the child] and I to be forced to remain in this country with no means whatsoever of supporting ourselves. I am not able to work and not entitled to any benefits.
I understand [the child] does have dual nationality and may or may not be entitled to a British passport.
