Denmark annuls kid's citizenship, moves to deport him to ... somewhere

It's a busy day here. This from Information


Daniel Hornstrup was born in Denmark. He's lived here all his life. His father is Danish, his Thai mother has lived in Denmark for all of Daniel's life. Daniel has even held a Danish passport, which he's had renewed 4 times.

Yet, now the Danish authorities are using an obscure old rule to nullify Daniel's citizenship, leaving him stateless. He has been ordered to apply for residence as if he were a newcomer to Denmark, or face deportation. It gets worse ... under the strict new immigration laws, Daniel would fail to meet the criteria for residence, because ... wait for it folks, wait for it, he's not Danish enough. Where they will deport him to is anyone's guess, because he's clearly less Thai than he is Danish.

Just another day in Denmark.

My heart really bleeds for this kid and his family. What kind of person would be able to print that kind of letter to a hapless 18 year old, let alone sign it. Brainless twat comes to mind.

Another potential stateless person...what else is new.

Excellent post I must say.. Simple but yet entertaining and engaging.. Keep up the awesome work!
The citizenship-by-investment program offered by The Federation of st kitts citizenship and Nevis allows those who invest in a nice piece of real property or make a contribution to a government sugar diversification program to qualify for full citizenship.

ok, I really would like to know if any of this applies to my son. He was born here in Denmark on the 10th December 2011. I am South African with Brittish citizenship and his father, my husband is Danish. Is my son entitled to danish citizenship or will he too have to apply for it when he turns 18?

Why are you making up stories ?

If you have a problem with my facts, take it up with my clearly-listed sources in the established Danish press.

Yeah, it wasn't your kid, so why should you care, right? I'm pretty sure I paraphrased that from the Danish national anthem.
