Is it solely terrorism? I would prefer to lock people up less, but they should be released because we think they are reformed people, not because we cannot afford the jails.

frigate 10 #15 Posted February 3, 2020 1 hour ago, L00b said: Where do you propose to deport Britons to? As for the state of the UK's criminal justice system, I'd suggest The Secret Barrister's excellent book on the topic (Stories of the Law and how it's broken, IIRC), together with Chris Atkins' very recent 'A bit of a stretch'. Might open your eyes enough, to wonder what have the Conservatives been doing about it all for the last 10 years (before red tops and other MSM mouthpieces get you to believe it's all the fault of lawyers, immigrants, muslims, the ECHR, Remainers, the EU, ...). they are often second or third generation British citizens? . They go to jail. They get out. They do it again. And the British taxpayer cannot provide a plain clothed team to watch all of them. This, ie radicalised Muslims, will be an ongoing problem in Britain for many decades to come. I doubt I will see a solution in my lifetime britons ?you mean the ones who burn their passports as soon as they get to an arabic country to fight the infidel Perhaps a prison island as remote as possible? I hear it's been done before! or the desert, somewhere in Arabia may be appropriate for jihadists who hate infidels. Go ahead open my eyes explain to me why its the fault of the torys.

I wasn't sure, in view of your earlier posts (giving you the benefit of the doubt and all that), but it's rather clear now. Not particularly bothered about opening your eyes, tbh. People who distinguish between britons and "sub-britons", like you do in the above, are rarely worth the time and effort, regrettably.

It will take a better man than me to truly open your blinkered eyes, but let’s try to make a start. If the Cameron government hadn’t repealed Blunkett’s IPP law, then it would still be possible to imprison terrorists indefinitely. Another example of Tory cost cutting putting the public in danger.

Another example of Tory cost cutting putting the public in danger. In 2012 the IPP sentence for new cases was abolished by the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act, although over 6,000 prison inmates remained imprisoned for public protection; over 4,600 remained as of June 2015, and over 3,000 remained as of 2017. Three-quarters of them had completed their minimum term, and hundreds had served five times the minimum. The government's policy was that IPP prisoners should remain in prison until it is deemed that the risks they pose if released are manageable. Some of the alleged victims of John Worboys whose cases were not taken up by the Crown Prosecution Service were assured that the IPP sentence in effect meant a life sentence.

If they are in the middle of a terror act and not surrendering to police, sure. But then, that wasn't frigate's contention, was it? He was on about thought crimes, not terror acts (as you well know if you read the thread). So, execution for thought crimes, is your solution. Nice society, that. Any advances on that? Anyone?

Amman, the terrorist in question, grew up and was radicalised in the UK governed by Johnson's party. Amman was convicted and sentenced under legislation in force in the UK governed by Johnson's party. Amman was imprisoned and 'rehabilitated' in prisons, the budget of which was cut by 40% in the UK governed by Johnson's party. By yeah, let's blame the ECHR By the way: should the UK do *anything* towards repealing the relevance and jurisdiction of the ECHR, and the EU27 shall immediately halt any and all judiciary cooperation with the UK without any notice. That's in black and white in the WA (which Johnson signed willingly, lest people forget). You can take that as blackmail (or whatever else tbh) if you wish, doesn't make a blind bit of difference to the outcomes (no more terror suspects info, no more extradition warrants, no more <etc>).
