Brazilian ejected as lingerie arouses border staff suspicions

No cover-up at Newcastle airport

UK Border Agency officials in Newcastle were patting themselves on the back this weekend after they turned back a Brazillian woman, whose suitcase contained nothing more than a few T-shirts and an extensive collection of boudoir wear.

The un-named 32-year-old was refused entry at Newcastle airport after border staff searched her suitcase and found it contained just three three t-shirts, a dressing gown and a large amount of lingerie, the Telegraph reports.

They remained unconvinced by her story that she was simply flying in from Geneva for four days to take a gander at Newcastle City Centre. Their suspicions aroused by her lack of rainwear, stout boots, mufflers and flat caps, they concluded that she was, instead, hitting the UK to work in the sex industry.

Further investigations revealed that she had been previously knocked back by Belfast's border guards in similar circumstances, and that Ulster's finest had also uncovered a "collection of sexual paraphenalia including a diary/address book containing details for numerous male contacts, escort agencies and sex sites."

As well as demonstrating that the government is serious about protecting Britain's borders, the apprehension of the inter-continental floozy also adds substance to Gordon Brown's pledge to keep British jobs for British workers.

However, it perhaps bodes less well for home-coming Geordie lasses, for whom lingerie and/or a skimpy T-shirt constitutes a suitable ensemble for a night down the Bigg Market. ®

(Might work in Vista. Dunno, haven't tried. I'd rather be forced to pay to get the entire El Reg. staff 'Mullah'd' on a Friday night on my dole money than try that Vista dogpoo).

(Or laid by a Brazilian...Bloke.)

Pequena correção

Volker;

Your brazilian phrase is slightly wrong. I'm not sure, but were You going for something like "Mine's the one with a ticket for (a card from Bahia?) Bahia in the pocket."

How about:

O meu é aquele, com uma passagem para a Bahia no bolso. (Mine's the one with a ticket to Bahia in the pocket)

Yes, I am Brazilian

No, we do not speak spanish

And Brasilia is the capital - not Buenos Aires, dammit! :D

Did she actually do anything wrong?

Is it actually illegal for someone to come to the UK to have sex? paid for or not.....As far as I am aware its not illegal to pay for or accept payment for sex. so why was she stopped? because the border guards 'dont like that sort of thing'?? are they just allowed to stop people for any old reason? Really dont know why they would even bother....what business is it of theirs if she is over here to get paid for sex?
