Yes I wouldn't go to a place if the advice is not to go there.

Yes Crazy,
They both admit being naive
about going through Iran,

I assume Iran wants Cash,
again.

"naively and ignorantly thought that we'd be OK,"
believing that having valid visas
and acting within the law would keep them safe,
despite the inherent risks]

Maybe the family could start a Go Fund me ...instead of wasting tax payer money on arrogant people who think they know better

This couple do not come across as lacking in intelligence...but they clearly thought they could get away with it...they deserve all they get.

As for your Spanish incident...common sense tells you to get off and cross the road and catch the bus going the other way. People like them damage our reputation...thicko's.

Sadly,
Iran can still claim the UK Government
still owes more cash


Back in 2022
£ 400 million was paid to Iran
