Other countries can do it why can't we?

Surely locked up in Brixton must deprive him off the healthy sunshine he gets in Australia.

[rov1100]

And we've got c**ts like this walking our streets and being released today

I think when this man is deported to Britain, there is no possibility we will torture him or even murder him.

Which is the reason we cannot deport the other man.

I am surprise you could not spot that glaring difference.

[flip_flop]

Jordan has given us their assurances they will not torture Qatada.

Should we just simply disbelieve their assurances?

[Gromit]

flip_flop

They haven't yet, but Dave is working on it.

// David Cameron has personally intervened in the Abu Qatada affair to accelerate efforts to find a diplomatic solution with the Jordanian authorities that would clear the way for the radical Islamist cleric to be deported. //

Then perhaps it is time for us to pretend to do the same, perhaps then it may encourage other countries from dumping their trash on our shores?

[Gromit]

Yes, let's be Barbaric like the Arabic countries are. We could chop off their arms and legs, but only for fun, coz we don't want Sharia Law, just the gore.

[DTCwordfan]

Do what they did in Spooks.

Box him up and put him on a plane to Amman

(The programme destination was Cairo and the criminal's passport stamped " Sentenced for Paedophilia Crime," knowing what the Egyptians would do).

I think the real problem here is that he had a visa to live in Australia and has been doing so since 1967, therefore paying no tax or other monies to the UK govt. I do think it's somewhat unfair that with the benefit of hindsight Australia can revoke someone's right to live in a country where they have paid taxes and offload them onto their country of origin where they haven't. In my opinion he's Australia's problem not the UK's.

[flip_flop]

I stand corrected - I thought the no torture assurances had already been given.

If Cameron does get Jordan's assurances they will not torture Qatada, would everybody be happy to see him deported?

[Brenden]

Yes Yes Yes

[tamborine]

Australia isn't signed up to the European Convention; how else can they protect their shores from boatloads of refugees.

Yes - Get rid.

[VHG]

You should be aware by now that the UK is happy to have potential terrorists, who may kill and maim uk citizens, walking our streets.

But to protect them we must not send them back to a country that may torture them.

Of course when the second world war started we rounded up all the people of german and italian extraction and put them in "camps" so they could not do damage to the country by spying and so on.

Nowadays we are so cowardly we cant even get rid of people we dont want here.

We have become impotent.

[jackthehat]

flip_flop - I think most people would be happy to help him on the 'plane with his luggage.

Rov - The prospect of having a convicted (British) rapist walking the streets of the UK will fill most women 'here' with a sense of foreboding...

The secret is in the word 'PRETEND', Comprendez?

Hate to be a pedant but it's "comprenez"

[naomi24]

DT, if you really hated it you wouldn't do it. ;o)

[New Judge]

Jordan has promised that Qatada will not suffer torture, Gromit. Whether we believe them or not is irrelevant because now, of course, the goal posts have been moved and now we cannot send him there because he “may” be convicted using evidence which “may” have been obtained by torture. That’s what Dave is now working on.

The Silence of the Lambs rapist in Australia has just lost his appeal to stay in that country where he has lived for 44 years and will be heading to Britain shortly.
