Another example of over-zealous border enforcement… the Pakistan blind cricket team, the reigning world champions, was to visit the UK to defend their title against their English counterparts.
They had all the necessary paperwork, including credentials from both the Pakistani and British Cricket authorities. They had even visited Britain twice before, in 2002 and 2006.
But, thanks to the UKBA, they won’t be able to defend their title.
Of course, blind sportsmen pose a mortal danger to any nation. God knows what kind of dangerous explosives and bombs they got hidden in their eye sockets.
