# The British high commission in Pretoria has apologised to EFF leader Julius Malema after his UK visa was not processed in time for a Cambridge University conference this weekend. High commissioner Antony Phillipson cited standard procedures and recent UK bank holidays as reasons for the delay after Malema accused the country of deliberate sabotage. The commission has offered full refunds to Malema and his team and noted it lacked authority over visa approvals.
