New on N2D. New as in me, Justine

Hi everyone,
                    my name is Justine and the guys here have graciously allowed me to come onboard. I'll be updating you with snippets of news whilst the guys are out and about. If anyone wants to put a guest  post here about any stories you have about UK Customs just e-mail me at  the usual address (nothing_2_declare@ymail.com) with your post and I'll put it up for you.
                                        
                                            Hope to hear from y'all,
                                                                                  Justine xxx

News

UKBA's latest  Jan 2012 newsletter  has an interesting piece about the strike they had. They are rather proud of this:-

"There were also some notable successes, including:

25 clandestines detected at Calais and Dunkirk 
1.5kg cocaine detected at Stansted
3,000 cigarettes and 23kgs of hand rolled tobacco at Birmingham Airport"

In Jan 2012, N2D got 14,200 cigarettes that UKBA had wrongly seized, returned to their rightful owners. Do you think that will be in their next newsletter? :-)

-----------------------------------------------------------

This next piece of news is doing my head in. FOREST are supporting the campaign by the Welsh Government to educate us parents on smoking in cars with children in them !*@!#%!!!!

Simon,  I'm sick to the back teeth of being educated by these anti-smoking health fascists. I don't need them to educate me in anything, especially smoking in my car with my kids in it. I don't do it, my friends don't do it, their friends don't do it and whats more, none of us never have! 

Haven't you been paying attention? After education comes REGULATION! This is the way they always do it! 

Debbie Arnott must be rolling about the floor laughing and wetting her knickers at the thought of FOREST actually supporting this campaign.Get a grip, you stupid man.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Well that's all for now. Please get in touch with your stories and thoughts,
                                                                                                               Justine xxx

Oooh, I forgot. Khaleesi put this up about N2D and I love it. I thinks it's quite appropriate here too. Enjoy

  2. " my name is Justine "

    Rubbish. Everyone knows there are NO girls on the intrawebz. FACT! You're probably some 200lb truck driver from Wigan :P

    Just kidding, glad the lads have finally seen sense and appointed another editor to look after this place. Sorry the last email I sent was still addressed to SH.

"In the eyes of the Tribunal the review letter contained several preconceptions, prejudgments and non-sequiturs"

"the absurdity of this reason is demonstrated by simply stating it"

"We therefore find that Mr Sked misdirected himself as to the Policy in carrying out the review and his decision is therefore one that no reasonable review officer could have arrived at."

... commonly known here at N2D as 'Skeds' ... that is to say these are Judges comments regarding UKBA Review Officer Ian Sked's reasons for rejecting peoples appeals against seizures.
