    Come on man - it's a kid ffs! Can't you just be happy to have played a part in helping someone?

    What about reading this story and thinking "jesus, I'm pleased I dont come from that world - we're all truly blessed in this country"? instead of getting your knickers in a twist about the 0.0000000001p that you've probably paid towards it.

    Because we have a high population of people in this country who are effected by forced marriages.

    If your main problem is that we have those funny looking foreigners daring to live in this country in the first place, then at least have the balls to be honest and just say that.

    Yes, forced marriages wont effect you personally. Or me personally for that matter. But it's an issue which effects a large % of the ethnic population who live here. So what's the problem? Or are they not as deserving to the police's help as you?

    With one hand we open the door to other peoples culture, with the other we decry their traditions. What sort of mixed message is this?

    It has cost us money to rescue this girl from a situation that is part of her tradition and religion. How many more are we going to rescue?

    By the way. I was in a forced marraige. If I didn't want to do anything, my now-ex missus would force me to do it (usually on the unspoken threat of fanny-rationing)

    Does that not answer it?
    Erm, nope.

    Why does this country have a whole department set up to handle forced marriages?

    Does France, Denmark, Sweden, Italy, Poland, Russia, Ireland, Spain, Portugal, the USA, Mexico, China, Japan, Canada?
