SocietyBritish man with dementia told to leave Sweden after losing migration case

Horace Mason, a 74-year-old British man who has lived in Sweden for 25 years, has been ordered to leave the country. Mason has dementia and requires round-the-clock care. He lost a post-Brexit migration case in a Swedish court and was given 10 days to depart. The ruling followed a July decision that the government’s drive to reduce immigration outweighed the needs of a man receiving full-time care.
