UK biometric visas

http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/learningenglish/newsenglish/witn/2008/01/080114_uk_visas.shtml

New Words
-The high price of the service could deter people from seeking advice.
-I swapped seats with her.
-They were deported as illegal immigrants.

My Idea
I listened to the article about biometric visas. I understood easily because I already knew the information. I think biometric visas are necessary to prevent people in UK from terrorism or other crimes. There is an argument that fingerprints are problematic because of the feint print or wet hands. However, thanks to new technology, which highlights characteristics such as skin layer and collagen fiber, this problem can be solved.
