[Wynonie Harris]

Surely, this whole incident illustrates a few different points.

1) Why are people allowed to go through airport security with their faces covered by veils?

2) Why are asylum seekers who commit crimes in this country not returned to their country of origin as a matter of course, whatever the danger? I heard some government lacky on TV last night say that we didn't do this because we are "a civilised country". Well, as far as I'm concerned a civilised country protects its citizens of whatever race, creed or colour.

3) How genuine was this asylum application anyway, as this individual seemed to have no qualms about returning to his so-called "dangerous" country?

4) Finally, Mr C has raised a point which I've been harping on about in the law and order threads for some time. How come political party members like Graham Jones and Gayle who are usually so voluble, strangely fall silent when we are talking about subjects like this? Why don't we hear from the mighty Greg Pope himself on the subject? Is it because they know that if they tried to defend their party's policy, they would find themselves at odds with most ordinary folk? And fair play to Cyfr, at least he had the bottle to come on here and state his views, although I suspect that they are not in line with Conservative party policy.

And before any of our more PC-minded members accuse me of being a racist, I'm married to a non-white immigrant!
