I'm glad she has gone, I saw her in a few interviews including Question Time and it was obvious she was out of her depth. She didn't have a clue and lied through her teeth.

She really was all over the place. Much like the immigration policy of the Blair goverment.

Thats true. When KayEm came over last year for us to marry, she was subjected to an hour long interrogation.
(When did you meet ?, how did you meet ?, why do you want to marry in England ? etc etc etc). Her last two flights to the UK were fine, she was just waved through but not this time. In the end I had to have an 'interview' with the Immigration agent to verify what KayEm had said). Meanwhile, Osama bin Laden clones were just waved through. So much for the 'Special relationship'

Basically, if you do things the 'right' way they will # all over you. Maybe she should have just come in illegally.
