Most recent article I can find, posted 2nd September

QUOTE "Makosi was permitted to enter and remain in the UK because she worked as a cardiac nurse, a job she quit to appear on Big Brother.

"Terrorists are treated better than me," she said of the probe. "Terrorists don't even go through that. Terrorists are paid £2,000 a week to look after their health and stuff. A lot of illegal immigrants are paid to stay in this country and are fed by taxpayers.

"I am here paying my taxes and working but I'm treated like a thug. The immigration person took four hours to come out. They took my fingerprints and a DNA swab from inside my cheek. I felt like a criminal. It was not nice at all."

Although Makosi eventually plans to return to nursing, she claims that she cannot do so just yet for the health of the patients. "If I was Mary or Lesley or even Saskia and I was a nurse, I could go back to nursing because they are not in the papers or magazines every day. But I couldn't walk back on to a ward now. Instead of reversing heart attacks, I would cause heart attacks."

Makosi is now planning to appeal over the revocation of her visa."
