Woman banned from New Zealand.

Will E Worm

Conspiracy...
A British man who moved to New Zealand has been told by officials that his wife is too fat to join him.

Richie Trezise, 35, a rugby-playing Welshman, lost weight to gain entry to New Zealand after initially being rejected for being overweight and a potential burden on the health care system.

His wife, Rowan, 33, a photographer, has been battling for months to shed the pounds so they can be reunited and live Down Under but has so far been unable to overcome New Zealand’s weight regulations.

I don't even know what that is so I doubt it!
 
There are lodas of reasons why New Zeland refuse entry, harder than you think to gain entry and become a Citizen. She will have failed their medical, i'm not saying this is fair though.

Maybe she's really just a plane flight risk !

Or, maybe they're just too cheap to buy the double fare - double chair sized cabin seating.

And who wants a window chair starboard next to her ? After all, it's a looooong flight, particularly with this type of flight orientation.

That rule applies here in Australia too.

It comes down to the health issues associated with being overweight and the in places like New Zealand and Australia where Citizens recieve free health care, the last thing our Governments are going to do is allow immigrants in to Aust and NZ who could be concidered a drain on the health system.

Before you say "but its just one woman" please remember that if you let in one you must let in all.

If she really wants to join her Husband, then she will lose the weight required to immigrate.

I guess that fat Aussies and NZ'ders must turn a cellulite ridden cheek on this issue.
