build a very large council house for them on Rockall or another uninhabited island and send them there. In fact, just send them with the tools and such so they can build their own.
Ironic isn't it? During World War One about three hundred deserting soldiers ,many of them shell shocked and ill,were put in front of a firing squad and shot for daring to come home
Great idea. Want a council house? Want to jump the queue? Clear off to Syria for a few months, make sure the authorities know, return and voila rewarded with a council house. Groan.
As with much of these cases which involve the intelligence agencies. I imagine there is a significant amount of information about this story which we won't know about for a very long time. This looks overwhelmingly like some kind of "deal" has been struck - whether it be for information, for future passage back to the warzone, whatever.
If that's all there is to this story , then it's totally inacceptable .
However as kromo says , it's very likely that there are things that we don't know , involving the security services , here .
Afterall it wouldn't be the first time that the good guys that move around in dark corridors in blacked out buildings, have made deals with the enemy , for the greater good of the populus , however unpalatable , on the face of it .
