London-born baby with British-resident parents denied UK status

A baby that was born in the UK to two British-resident parents has been denied the right to live in the country. Human rights lawyers called the decision “shameful” and “potentially unlawful”.

Dr Charles Kriel, a US national and special adviser to a parliamentary select committee, was returning to Britain from Florida with his fiancee Katharina Viken and their their 15-week-old daughter, Viola Pearl Viken-Kriel when they were stopped by border officials.

They said his child did not have the right to reside in the country.

Instead they said she could enter the UK but only on a six-month tourist visa specifying that she must not work or use public services.

OK, I can well understand that a baby might need the NHS - and they would forbid this? - but what work do they think the baby will be doing?

Fabella: Bone thought to be lost to evolution mysteriously returning to human body
'We are taught the human skeleton contains 206 bones, but our study challenges this'

A primordial bone found in our primate ancestors but thought to be redundant and rapidly dwindling in humans appears to have made a quiet comeback over the past century

Scientists from Imperial College London have admitted they are stumped as to why the fabella, a small bone buried in a tendon behind the knee, is now three times more common than it was in the early 1900s.
