Claim: The coalition government has cancelled the visas of 10,000 violent criminal offenders since it came to power in 2013.
Fact-check: Claim the government cancelled 10,000 visas of 'violent criminals' should be put away
Verdict: mostly false. the 10,000 figure refers to the number of visas cancelled and refused to people deemed to be of bad character, not just violent criminals. some of those cancellations were later overturned.
