Dunno. I learnt in Goerdiland for a number of years (now i am learning in Israel), and i definatly see the need for all the takonas. We are basically talking about a small ghetto where the 2 furthest points in the kehilla are about 15 minutes apart. EVERY reasonable thinking guy realises the neeed for the Takonas. Furthermore, sorry to disapoint all you guys but Moreinu Horav Binyomin Hershkewitz shlita never was and never will be the rav of G/hd. He is and probably will always retain the position of Rosh Yeshiva of Dansky’s.
Additionally it is impossible to take 2 plane journeys from anywhere in England and end up in Gateshead. The country simply isn’t large enough to take off and land twice (their is not planes from Manchester to Gateshead for that reason, 120 miles is to short for a plane journey). If she was coming from abroad why did she notget a meal on the plane or take food with her. It must be that she didn’t trust the kashrus of the planes food. It seems to me that SHE was imposing her CHUMRA over the halochas of tsniut.
Additionall, one can always go to Tesco’s or some other other non jewish store to purchase kosher nosh.
