Reply To: UK Border Question: where did you travel?

[TicknBash]

As an Asian passport holder travelling with indefinite leave for the last 15 years, I’ve had a range of questions and some cranky moments.

What is the purpose of your visit to the UK.
Pay taxes.

Do you cook ?
What is the relevance of this question.

Is this your family ?
Sometimes.

Welcome home – was genuinely taken aback and thanked him.

I’d like to think they’re trained to pick up cues if something is off to warrant further questioning / investigation.
I have always viewed as the border officers have got an objective to achieve (to secure the border) and I welcome whatever they want to ask, but I may choose to only answer relevant questions for the purposes of border entry.
