Oh, and let's also recall that Pastor Terry Jones has also been banned from entering the UK because of his extremist views:
What does this have to do with Abu Qatada being a threat to the UK homeland security?
It directly addresses FD's question about hate crime being a deportable offence (in the UK as this is what we're discussing).
So Shaf, barking and hate speech should be enough for deportation?
Pastor Terry Jones is barred from the UK for his extremist views - and therefore this 'crime' is enough to deport someone who has already got in. The government is trying to deport Qatada. Both have barks greater than their bites - as I said before.
FD - it is Anjem Choudhary's lot who 'dance in the street' when British soldier's bodies are brought back - and who I said have the same views as Qatada. But we can't deport them, as they are British. I'd like to put both them and the EDL in a slow boat to somewhere far away and let them fight it out! 😀
Cheers,
