Our Lads home at last
 

At long last our lad is home from Guantanamo Bay, The Ethiopian born asylum-seeker Binyam Mohamed flew into RAF Northolt on private jet at a cost of £110,000 to the British tax payer. I was rather surprised that Gordon and the whole cabinet weren't there to greet him, and where was the brass band. It now appears that he has a fight on his hands to say in this country, yea reght, who are they trying to kid, he'll already have a dez rez lined up and plenty of readies to ease him back into the good old swing of things. This country has become the dustbin of the world, what was it Tony said when he left Downing Street, signing up to the European Human Rights Act was his finest achievement, beam up Scotty:o

very sore point wi me this guy:( ok no charges brought, but the guy visits Afghanistan after 9/11 just to see what n islamic states like, ballcocks i certainly do not buy that story.:mad:

Re: Our Lads home at last
 

how long is it going to be before he tries to do something in this country?/ (oh sorry i forgot all the charges where dropped against him) utter bull!!!

Re: Our Lads home at last
 

I think you are being a little cynical there Cashy:rolleyes: Sounds to me like he was just one of your average down and out Ethiopian Asylum seekers that fancied a trip to Afghanistan(wonder were he got the cash) to see what life was like there(as you do).;)

The authorities did at least stop short of letting him fly the plane back.:D

We can all rest at ease now knowing that the 10's of thousands of pounds it will cost to keep him safe and secure is money well spent:confused::confused:

Re: Our Lads home at last
 

considering how many british born people went to train in afghanistan to fight against our troops i find it highly unlikely he went there with good intentions

i think its a case of he was picked up too soon so can claim innocence but the alternative was to let him train and do whatever they had planned for him to do then hope to catch him in the act


was it some lads from accrington or blackburn that went to train in afghanistan , what happened to them are they still roaming our streets ?

Well if we choose to live in this democratic system, we're going to have to make peace with the fact that if there's no sustainable evidence then nothing can be done.
It's probably me watching too much 24, but something screams guilty as sin about this fella.

I recall seeing this chaps scumbag lawyer on TV years ago, think he just classed himself as a journalist then though, making a programme about all those poor innocents on death row in America.....theres obviously not enough money to be made out of helping normal, decent folk!!:(

'...his right to remain (in Britain) expired in 2004, he is due to receive up to £21,600 a year in handouts.'

Daily Star: Simply The Best 7 Days A Week :: News :: I'm back... And I want benefits

Sounds about par for the course.:mad:

'He was flown back on a luxury Gulfstream jet accompanied by two Foreign Office officials, two Metropolitan police officers and a doctor.

The Foreign Office and Home Office jointly paid for the trip, which is estimated to have cost as much as £160,000.'

Freed Guantanamo prisoner's return on luxury jet cost £160,000... now he could claim thousands in benefits | Mail Online

Blimey, perhaps H.M. The Queen has adopted him, and he's going to be called Prince Binyam.

Re: Our Lads home at last

Re: Our Lads home at last

What do you mean Rindi, he's going for tea on Sunday, he's just dying to meet Phil the Greek:D like one refugee to another

Re: Our Lads home at last
 

He was flown 'home' on a private jet along with two policemen,two Government officials and a Doctor at a cost of £120,000.
Now he could claim a weekly allowance of:

Income Support-£137
Housing Benefit-£105
Council Tax Benefit-£34
Disibility Living Allowance- £114
Jobseekers Allowance-£60

Fair enough??
