Questão jurídica principal
Whether the revocation of the settlement permit and removal were proportionate despite long residence and family ties.
Decisão extraída
The revocation was proportionate because the applicant committed repeated serious drug offences, showed no lasting change, and his private and family interests did not outweigh the public interest in ending his stay.
Fundamentação extraída
The court stressed the seriousness and repetition of the offences, the applicant's culpability and lack of insight, the deterrent and public-order interests, and the weak family-law basis because neither the partner nor the child had a secured right of residence.
