Yep and on the central point I totally agree with you wjlmarsh. Just politics pandering to Tabloid headlines at its most cyncical; and we have a very cynical Gov and a truly malevolent Home Secretary. Wish we could boot Patel out for crimes against decency! |

You are a little confused. Abu Hamza was extradicted to the US on terrorism charges a few years back, was tried and is serving life imprisonment.
Begum is a child who went off to marry an IS fighter aged 15 and the Home Secretary has decided that to look hard - and in a show of "protecting" the UK - has stripped her citizenship.
Hamza is about terror, killing and crime; Begum politics.
I just wish the Gov would spend as much energy protecting us from its own stupidities rather than manufactured threats.
Thanks Wyot for pointing out my confusion. The character was Othman (Abu Qatada) who I was thinking of and the other one keep having his picture in the news thus stuck in my mind. It was just some general thoughts I had. On the particular case I have trouble understanding what real threat a confused 15-year-old girl at the time could be now or even at the time.

A couple of thoughts.
She is a citizen by birth of the UK so normally each country has responsibility for it's citizens even when they go after them internationally for a crime that they are jailed later for back in the UK.

Diddums.
But you could say the same about fifteen year old "prostitutes".
How can grooming and exploitation only happen if it involves sex?
Oranges and lemons there Honey.
If underage hookers are groomed then they need to find the perverts and string them up.
But its the same thing, Green Man. You can either coerce fifteen year olds into doing something horrible that they wouldn't normally do, or you cant.
One party is abused the other party is a terrorist. |
