So glad we’re spending so much money on this and not “woke ideology” aka feeding kids.
No, it doesn’t.
Allowing an appeal has a very specific meaning: upholding the appeal and overturning the decision of the court below. It is the opposite of dismissing the appeal.
It is not the same as granting permission to appeal, which is the threshold question of whether the appeal can be brought in the first place (and is what has happened here).
So the lawyers that handled the original asylum claim, and then brought this to the high court have now just got themselves on an appeals gravy train
