No, you make sure you have EVIDENCE (remember that?), and give them a FAIR TRIAL (remember those?), and then SENTENCE THEM...

That's not what human rights legislation is for... The victim of something like a rape is protected by criminal law - which is why the rapist is in prison, convicted of rape, serving his sentence in exactly the same way as if he was British. Human rights legislation protects people (all people, including criminals) from governments. In that case, he was protected from being returned to a lawless country where he would almost certainly be tortured and murdered. You might think that there's no problem in the UK government being complicit in that - excuse me if I disagree...
Oh, that's ok then. I didn't realise that the rights of a foreign criminal rapist trumped the rights of a British women not be raped in her own country by someone who ought not to be here.

As for being "complicit" in torture and murder - bullst. If, and it's a big if, his own country choose to do that, that's their choice not ours. None of our business. If he didn't want to be sent home, he shouldn't have raped.

Did you read the article? While I have no desire to see him stay here, you can't deport someone who has a realistic prospect of being killed on their return.
To paraphrase, if you can't do the execution, don't do the terrorist c**t thing. Sure, we shouldn't deport someone who comes here saying, for example, "I'm gay and they'll throw me off a car park if I return". But if that person then goes on to plan an attack where he's going to bomb a huge event full of young people here in the UK, then sorry but here's your plane ticket, you put yourself back on offer.
Sorry but when applying for asylum how do you check what someone might do in 10 years? Or are you saying the threat of deportation is so great it sets people straight? Doesn't seem to work with the death penalty! People are caught up discussing punishment not prevention. Mainly because if we talk about prevention most fingers would point in a single direction

What you all seem to be arguing is that, in principle, you'd be ok with just giving people with fast cars points and fines because it looks like they might be preparing to break speed limits.

Did you actually bother to read what you just quoted? Or did you simply not understand it?

I suspect you didn't have an issue with extraordinary rendition, either.

Actually I'm not, here's what Teresa may said:

"And I mean doing more to restrict the freedom and movements of terrorist suspects when we have enough evidence to know they are a threat, but not enough evidence to prosecute them in full in court."

Ffs what they have been locked up for? You'd need some evidence or suspicion, un which case you'd probably have found what they were doing earlier! Nobody tried to lock them up and failed, they were report by family community and even Italian services yet they weren't followed up on that's a lack of resources no human rights, human rights would only be an issue if the authorities tried to do something, which they didn't!

You are

Lock up...is NOT "restrict the freedom and movements of terrorist suspects when we have enough evidence to know they are a threat, but not enough evidence to prosecute them in full in court.

So yes....you ARE talking bkS

All she's done for the past week and a bit is talk herself out of my vote! All the recent incidents its been mentioned that the perps weren't just known but were in fact reported to the authorities by communities and families. After 7/7 there was lots of talk that people shouldn't stay silent, communities and families should step forward etc etc, well they have and nothing was done. Lack of intelligence wasn't the issue, at no point were human rights an issue, resources were what was needed and they were lacking. Were the police ready to pounce if only they didn't have pesky human rights? No. She may as well be promising to fix the problem by legalising drugs, the two aren't connected at all in the recent cases.
So you think Jeremy Corbyn and Diane Abbott are the answer? Have a look at the sky news interview with Diane about terrorism, and consider that she may be chairing the next Cobra meeting.

Jeremys view on terrorists are well known of course.

A persuasive argument. You might want to try disagreeing with some supporting arguments, otherwise your views won't really elicit much credibility. I think you would get on well with Teresa may.

Who cares?

Why should anyone care?

He was given an incredible opportunity to be free of his "lawless" home country, to a first world country which welcomed him and provided him an extravagant (by Somalian standards) safety net. He repaid our generosity by raping one of our citizens.

In my book, he is no longer welcome to step foot on UK soil ever again. What happens to him beyond that is not our responsibility. Maybe next time he should try not raping the locals.

No i don't but i'm pretty sure tearing up my rights isn't going to solve anything and I quite value my rights. Again show me when any of these clowns were in a position to be arrested or locked up on even the most spurious charges? They were reported by family, comunities and authorities and they weren't followed, tracked or looked at to a level of detail that would have exposed this. At no point did human rights reduce the authorities ability to stop this.

Do you really want to give up your rights which weren't even causing a problem? Musn't be worth much to you then are they?

I'd have a big problem if it wasn't for the minor detail that a court has to look at the evidence and then decide if somebody's guilty before sentencing them.

Fine. So look at the evidence, try him, and find him guilty if the evidence warrants it. Then sentence him for the crime. Oh, wait, that's exactly what actually happened, and why he's staring at the walls of a prison cell right now.

Does the sentence for rape include torture and death? No...
Should it? I suspect we might disagree on that one.
