Should a Hindu family who came here illegally be sent back to Afghanistan?

Should a Hindu family who came here illegally be sent back to Afghanistan? And would you pay extra to fly without screaming kids on a flight?

At 1, Should a Hindu family who came here illegally be sent back to Afghanistan? 
Arti Kumar fled Afghanistan in 2007 with her two sons after her daughter was abducted. The family have claimed asylum here in the UK but they've been turned down. They say they face religious persecution by the Taleban. Some of you have strong views about illegal immigrants as we heard last week - does this case change your mind? Should the Hindu family be allowed to stay even though they came here illegally?

After 2, Would you pay extra to fly without screaming kids on a flight?
Nearly seventy-five per cent of business class passengers say they're annoyed by the noise created by children on flights. So, should the parents do more to control their kids, or would you just upgrade yourself? Do you think adult-only flights are the way forward?

Also - Are you a brave woman if you leave the house without make up? One of the girls on the team is having laser eye surgery and therefore can't wear eye make up for a week - she's dreading it. But is she shallow or do you sympathise with her?
