Woman 'humiliated' at Manchester Airport after being asked to prove she lives in Ormskirk

A woman says she was left 'humiliated' after travelling through Manchester Airport when staff apparently demanded she proved she lived in the UK.

Laurence Sauvage-Lumb lives in Ormskirk with her husband and daughter. Originally from Lille, she was returning from France after a trip to her homeland last week when the incident took place.

The 52-year-old had made the journey to visit the grave of her twin who died last year. She says passport control at Manchester Airport asked how long she was planning to stay in the country and then to 'prove' she lived in England.
