I think the implication is you need one to get in. If already in flight, just do what that Naomi Campbell does. Problem solved.Feist - 1234. One camera, one take, no editing. Superb. How they did it

I thought a criminal record was a prerequisite for getting in to Australia.Originally posted by AtW View PostDid you check those boxes saying something along the lines "1) I engaged on war crimes, 2) I took part in terrorist acts, 3) I sold drugs etc"? If so then it might explain.

Just heard from trailfinders, I was selected for checking because someone with a similar name was on the watch list. But they have granted the visa so I'm off on my adventures for 4 weeks this autumn
