Are you sure you have the whole story ? The doctor involved is not a British passport-holder: he has a work-permit.

Surely you can understand that:
a) British citizens get priority
b) This is not an office-situation where there can be meetings over weeks to get a consensus , and that simple, unambiguous rules are needed.

So how would you decide at the airport gate ?
