A Mexican national who told airport immigration he was visiting Britain to see a friend was swiftly deported after a search unearthed a good-luck card in his luggage wishing him well for his "new life in the UK." Skip related content

Border Agency officers at Manchester Airport routinely stopped the 40-year-old chef after he arrived on a flight from Los Angeles last Friday.

The man told them he was on a short trip to see a friend who was opening a restaurant in the area.

"However, a search of the passenger's baggage revealed a huge collection of Mexican food recipes and a good-luck card from his church wishing him well for his 'new life in the UK,'" the agency said in a statement.

The man later admitted he had intended to work at the restaurant illegally and had planned to bring his family over from America if he liked it.

He was deported the next day.

"We will not tolerate people coming here to work illegally," the agency said. "People wanting to visit the UK must play by the rules. Those who do not are sent back."

How can a student entering the UK with his CV in his luggage be deported? Even when some schools request for CV as part of their application process? The case you are drawing out is different from the case of the Mexican man. The Mexican man entered the UK on a visit with ulterior intentions. They are two different cases.

Oh well

That's is funny but , i just dnt know wat to say

Happens all the time people being found out like this.

I can tell you a million stories about when I used to work at the border.
For example there was the case of a South African who had a new passport
and claimed he had never visited the UK before. We checked his luggage including
a wallet and guess what we found, a London underground photo pass belonging
to him. He was on the next plane home.

LOL!!!
