Hey this could be another one for the ECHR's book of excuses, "They can't send me back I might catch Ebola".

Oh dear,well,we shall await a Spokesman to comment and advise of the chain of events...

No need to be sarcastic, I was only pointing out that this was not about panicking about Ebola coming to the UK, that had been discussed on a previous thread. .

And I said, ///haven't been here for a while/// so hadn't seen it!
