US visitor is sent home over her diary admission

An American woman visiting Britain on a tourist visa has been sent home after immigration officials at Heathrow read in her diary that she had wanted to find work on a previous visit, her English boyfriend has said. Elizabeth Louis, 23, arrived on Thursday with James Caddy, who had spent Christmas with her in Cincinnati. But on their arrival, Miss Louis was questioned by immigration officials and had her bags searched. Mr Caddy, 26, had to leave the room and later found out that officials had decided his girlfriend could not stay. She telephoned him at 3am to say she was being sent home because of a diary entry.
