    Lid posed the idea of questioning Cameron - I'd expect him to reply that the PakiStani Govt requested that the girl receive urgent medical attn in the UK and asked for visa requirements etc to be dropped and the UK agreed to this

    Maybe Dedworth and Andy should run for PM, you probably would see a change in your country if any of you win.

    Don't you have to be a British citizen, a Commonwealth citizen or a citizen of the Irish Republic who is resident in the UK before you can vote?

    I can't vote in the UK anymore, only in the Isle of Man as I am resident here. My wife, on her spouse visa, is also a resident of the Isle of Man, but not the UK so she can vote in the Isle of Man elections. I checked this out a few months back and indeed if we were in the UK she would not be eligible.

    This is quite useful for us as once she is on the electoral register here we can use it as evidence for ILR.

    Yes. Evidently so. I was quite surprised when I found out. I only found out when filling out the electoral register form here. And then phoned em up to check.

    If they are not a third world country why are we giving them aid? And she knew what she was doing was wrong and against the principles of the country.

    Developing World country. But as some point out, some of these Developing World countries are catching us up, here in the UK.
