Which country issued the tourist visa?

To enter UK with an EEA national a Family Permit would be appropriate.

If entering UK on visit visa (UK immigration laws) a visitor would be expected to leave again at the end of the visit.

To enter UK with an EEA national (& planning to stay in UK) the non-EEA national is expected to apply for an EEA Family Permit.
