Amber Rudd is getting coated on question time. She is clearly uncomfortable and out of her depth. Face like a dogs bum with a hat on.

Programme is worth a watch. Some really salient points.

Ha. Yes. The whole political class seemed to want to rush to war.

But there's still a lot on Cameron and May's shoulders. Cutting back of police forces, etc.

Bullsh1t.

I have also started to watch Question Time. Will not comment on Panel Members at this stage. However, it does provide a more thoughtful report covering people's second questions. Sadly, a lot of news is presented at the first question level - with media resources devoted to answering first questions on a continuous basis. If memory serves reporting of the Croydon Tramlink Accident was swamped by presidential news from the US. Saturation coverage of one event seems often to show people (who are expected to say something) saying unguarded things.

Is it really terrorism, to blow yourself up in a horde of kids? Does it really serve a political end to randomly kill people who have no influence or capacity to affect politics. Does it really serve a political cause or further an oppressed political groups rights.

Or is it just dumb f**king murder, that serves a tangential link to a political cause, and a fundamentalist view of Islam, that even other Muslims are fighting alongside us to prevent. Does anyone other than those in that cause even understand what the political objective actually is.

When you look at IS, and its occupation of territory, its just more of the same, horror and violence. It is all they have to offer. These aren't people fighting for a better life for their families, or for freedom, a social justice or even a better future.

All they have to offer is violence, horror and suffering, even to those who believe in them.

If that is the case, and I believe it is, maximum fcuking violence on those involved is the only answer.

Their motivation is hatred and fighting in itself. They aren't happy until they kill and are happy to be killed in that pursuit. Heaven awaits.
Some might find that romantic and want to join up. The reality is far less appealing.

Here's a question for you.

Two men exactly the same age race and religion.

Man a) goes to a football match acts a bit of a t***t, outside after the game gets involved in a spot of pugilism gets nicked, has passport taken away and banned from all football grounds.

Man b) travels to Syria to fight with IS against allied troops, attends training camp for terrorists, comes back to the UK and is welcomed with opened arms at passport control.

What the fckin fcuk is that all about. Stop being so bloody wet, and nick them the minute they come back.

Ex-head of COBRA calls for detention and deportation of terror suspects.

Very sensible and hope it happens.

 


Wife beating may be socially acceptable in Sheffield, but it is a different matter in Cheltenham

Except in scenario B - He's also going to be arrested and charged with offences under the terrorism act, if he can be identified as such. People tend to fight for IS under pseudonyms, use false passports etc and sneak or get smuggled over the border, and come back via different countries. I think its at least five year sentence, plus any crimes you committed in Syria can be prosecuted in the UK, because Terrorism has universal jurisdiction.

Personally, I think if your convicted, it should be a indefinite sentence, and that the only way you are ever getting out, is by earning it.

If you're let through, its because your on a surveillance order and your passport has been flagged by the security service.

Well firstly we shouldn't deport them, that just makes them someone else's problem. The second is more problematic, at what point does someone become a terrorist suspect suitable for detention - What kind of evidence is to be used?

Suspending the right to a trial is pretty f**king big and it massively backfired on the US over Guantanamo Bay.

A good example is that about 15% of the people arrested under the Terrorist act, are charged. The police tend towards a 'better safe than sorry' and want everyone's statement under oath etc.

A good example, is that the one of the guys arrested after Manchester was the bombers landlord. The police didn't really suspect he was involved, but they did need his statement, on record.

So what is the burden of suspicion that would legally allow detention or deportation?

There are several thousand individuals on the intelligence radar. Rounding up those without British citizenship and deporting them may well make it someone else's problem (or more likely return the problem to its origin) but our primary responsibility is to our own people in our own country. It's physically not possible to keep constant tabs on them so deporting them makes perfect sense. It then gives the security services more time and resources to concentrate on the 'home grown' vermin to lift and, where necessary, intern them.

We are at war. War is an extraordinary situation and extraordinary situations call for extraordinary measures.
