The subjective assessment made by the Entry Clearance Officer at the consular post overseas must prevail if those criteria are met.
Thanks for that clarification.
I was thinking along the lines of some of our passengers who arrive from a certain island in the Caribbean with a visa but are then refused entry. But obviously they could fall into one of the categories you've mentioned.

Now as Mr Swanhunter has begged us not to discuss the rights and wrongs of immigration I will duck out of this and go and feed my animals on Farmville
