UK village backs Kiwi facing deportation
11:22AM Monday February 25, 2008

Residents of a north England village are rallying behind a New Zealand sports coach facing deportation after his work permit expired.

Kerry Hurst, 32, moved to the Cumbrian village of Kirkby Stephen seven years ago, where he has been credited with setting up a thriving youth group for teenagers and reviving the fortunes of the local rugby and cricket teams.

His original five-year work permit expired in February 2007.

He worked as an accounts manager for a bakery which changed its name after being taken over, and his failure to alert the Home Office of the change of company name led to allegations he lied in efforts to remain in Britain, the Sunday Sun newspaper reported.

He has been told to leave England by the end of April.
