No more nails

Police and immigration officials swooped in on the American Nail bar in North Street arresting four Vietnamese asylum seekers who were working illegally.
Two men, aged 27 and 28, and two women, aged 20 and 27, were whisked away to Heavitree Road Police Station where they were leaned on by the plod.
Amazingly when an asylum application has been rejected, the subjects of the claim are expected to leave the UK voluntarily, presumably by asking them really nicely if they wouldn't mind going back to the war torn hell hole from whence they came.
Either that or a quick text might do the job.
Officers attending were apparently very nervous approaching the shop and were kitted out in full protective clothing as the possibility of finding a nail bomb on site had not been ruled out.
