I’m too tired to look up links right now, but I heard on radio and read that the government had closed some program for refugees to bring in a number of their immediate family. It had mostly been abused by Somalis. What happened with Omar’s family is that her family wasn’t granted refugee status, so another family granted status here took in her, one of her sisters, and her father. So they changed their name. The rest of of her family were “adopted by a family that was granted status in England.

Did they mention why they were denied status. A couple of days ago the term “war lord” was dropped but don’t remember if it was pertaining to her father or not.

NIKK..I'm gathering information from different areas so I've tried to say who is speaking.

Tom Tugendhat ‏ (Father, Kentish, veteran. MP for Tonbridge and Malling. Chair, Foreign Affairs Committee.)

Iran’s actions are part of a pattern of hostage taking. The UK needs to stand up for our ships and defend our interests.

Alexander Marquardt(CNN)

‏ No Brits in crews on either ship seized by Iran, UK Foreign Sec Jeremy Hunt says.

Abas Aslani ‏ (Editor-in-chief @IranFrontPage; Visiting scholar at the Center for Middle East Strategic Studies (CMESS))

Military sources are saying that only Stena Impero has been siezed & no other tanker has been siezed, adding that the Liberian-flagged tanker Mesdar has only been notified on the environmental & maritime regulations & then has continued its path.

An Iranian military source explains the reasons for seizing #UK tanker: The tanker was on a route other than the shipping lane in the Strait of Hormuz; it had switched off its transponders; and it did not pay any attention to #Iran’s warnings.
