#2 I wouldn't want to suggest that Labor is trying to put a good face on what has been up to now a very poor showing in reeling in these folk and keeping them in jail or deporting them. Too much has been made of the supposed protections the "human rights act" gives these people. That facts are it gives as little as the UK government and law courts are willing to give. Up till now they have gone well past what is required. Now it's time to only do what the law allows and no more, no less. Perhaps they will take a clue but I am in grave doubt.

Good luck with this if you really are serious.
I wish we were here in the US of A on imigration as well.

#3 Interesting development , but i suspect after holding them for 24 hours , giving them free food and interviewing them weakly , all will be released , because the screaming left will cry foul .. One year on the government will be sued , the Met will be sued , all and sundry will have egg on their faces .

call me pessimistic :)

#4 I can already hear the whinings of Shama Chakrabati and other HR do-gooders.. By teatime this will be an 'act of gross hostility towards a minority community' or even better 'an attack on the devout' or for the treble 20, 'a display of the government's rampant Islamophobia.'

#6 Someone should hold Sham Chakrabati responsible for the people she helps release.

If they go on to murder, then she should be incarcerated.
