Even if he'd been convicted I don't think he'd be eligible for deportation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is saying that ‘bleeding heart, lefty’ types who support defending these people are also typically the types of people who opposed Brexit. Cummings made a similar comment, something about rich inner city dwellers being out of touch with the mood of the country. It’s your basic culture wars. To be fair they are probably right, I consider myself one of those bleeding heart types and am typically found living in the inner city. I used to think my progressive views were fairly mainstream but political results around the world over the last few years make me think I’m actually way out of touch with the prevailing views.

Popular Post snowychap Posted February 13, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2020 Independent: Quote A British citizen has been blocked from entering the UK after a holiday because the Home Office revoked his passport with no warning – rendering him stateless. Fatush Lala, 33, who has lived in Britain since the age of 14, was told by border officials as he tried to board a flight home from Brussels airport that he had no right to do so. ... Mr Lala, who was born in Serbia but moved to the UK as a teenager and naturalised, said he went to the UK embassy in Belgium to seek help, only to be told his British passport – the only one he has ever owned – was no longer valid and have it confiscated from him, leaving him stateless ... It has since emerged that the Home Office had sent a letter addressed to Mr Lala on 5 December informing him that his passport was being revoked – but it was sent to the wrong address so never reached him. The letter states that his UK passport “should not have been issued”, on the basis that he naturalised with an identity that “conflicts [his] true identity”. It states that he said he was born in 1986 and born in Serbia, but the Home Office believes he was born in 1985 in Albania. It provides no explanation as to how the Home Office obtained this information but states that he must not use the document for travel. ... rest on link 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted February 13, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted February 13, 2020 Quote If there was a case of a young white boy with blond hair who later dabbled in class A drugs and conspired with a friend to beat up a journalist, would he deport that boy, or is it one rule for young black boys from the Caribbean and another for white boys from the United States?

snowychap Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 (edited) Julian Smith sacked as NI Sec of State. Grauniad: Quote Colum Eastwood, the SDLP leader: It defies belief that after the successful restoration of power sharing following a three-year collapse, Julian Smith’s reward is a cabinet office P45. It tells you all you need to know about Boris Johnson’s attitude to the north that he would sack the most successful secretary of state in a decade. He is at best indifferent. ...more Edited February 13, 2020 by snowychap Wrong link text Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NurembergVillan Posted February 13, 2020 Moderator Share Posted February 13, 2020 Leadsom has been potted too. Seems like a couple of good decisions in her and McVey, but lets see what filth he can scrape up to replace them with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
