Are we the dumping group for all the low life child sex offenders.
I see Australia has deported another one to the UK.
I think we have enough of this deprived scum in the UK thank you very much.

Can you name ANY OTHER - apart from the one you have read about in today's (lowlife) papers?

One of my colleagues has got the paper in question.

Yes he seems a replusive horrible human-being, but he never was an Australian citizen and they declared him 'an unlawful citizen'. He also seems like he has severe mental problems.

I think the real issue is that Australia have the guts to throw out unlawful citizens who have emigrated. Yet with the same issue, we cannot do the same, when someone flouts the law or is arrested for an serious offence. Am I right in thinking that we are offering

I think we should copy Australia's stance and as for that man, I would rather he'd live somewhere else, but as he was born in the UK, he has a right to come back.

I can't think of another example that Joe Tik eluded to, so I tend to go along with In the Know's question.

The REAL issue is that this man will not face eth by sending him back to his OWN Country, Mike.

Many of the people that you refer to are here because they are not safe in their own Country, and would probably die if returned there.

I think this is a really scumbag decision by a cowardly immigration board in co-opeartion with the local cops.

I'm really against this "sex offendor" register except in really serious cases like this guy who sounds like a pretty dangerous bloke and a repeat offendor. Kids and people who commit one offence get caught up in the idiotic register thing that does nothing positive except stigmitzes them for life and probably causes more harm than good-that's certainy what is happening in the USA where a 17 year old boy who has sex with his 15 year old girlfriend ends up on a public register to be hounded for life. These people have a crminal record so why this extra punishment?.

Now as to the Aussies doing this-this is really a totally cowardly act on their part. The guy has been there all his life and has no connection to the UK. They tried this with a young Bosnian guy whose parents emigrated to Austraia when he was about 2 years old and he grew up to have string of drug and burglary convictions. They deported him back to his birthplace where he didn't even speak the language and he ended up on the streets but after a public outcry he was allowed to go back to Australia to live.

Basically the Australian authorities are saying "we don't care about the safety of British kids-so we are sending back this completely disturbed bloke who will have no ties or family in the UK, be completely disorientated and probably more likely to commit a crime because of it". So if it happens-blame the Australian authorities for their cowardice on not confronting the problem themselves and getting caught up in "pedophile panic" to such an extent that just export it rather than deal with it.

I seem to remember the case of someone convicted of some crime in this country being threatened with deportation to Italy, even though he hadn't lived there since he was a toddler. Or was it the other way round, I remember so little about the story. The point is, I was against that and am similarly against Australia's reasoning for deporting this man. Do they have no habitual residency laws in Australia?

That said, what criteria warrant this story being headline news? Apart from the gutter press obsession with that very rare beast, the paedophile, that is. How does spreading unnecessary fear into the hearts of ill-informed parents help anyone? Their children have more chance of being struck by lightning than being attacked by this man. Hey, parents, did you know that almost 2% of every Boeing 737 ever manufactured has ended up in a crash,(that's a fact)? No, you won't know that, as The Sun has never told you. There's something else to worry you, as you take your kids off on their Easter holidays- a much bigger risk probability than Raymond Horne, I'd say.
