With the benefit of hindsight approach radar controller should have notified the aerodrome controller that is was decidedly “iffy”

A time that you are required to do as you are told might be, for example : “I am instructed by Her Majesty Government to refuse you entry into United Kingdom Airspace. What are your intentions?
Failure to comply would be followed by a QRA by air defence.........
There may well be others......yet to be pointed out
