So kiss me and smile for me,
Tell me that you'll wait for me,
Hold me like you'll never let me go...


About bloody time too!

I for one care, preaching hate against our country - he is best gone. We need to sort ourselves out and rid our country of hate preaching people. As said above 'on to the next'.

It really shouldn't be that hard to deport people like that from this country.

Just been watching Cameron and May trying to make political gain out of this on the news and telling us how it was a priority for this government to deport him etc. etc.

They make me sick. If it was a priority and it still took them over 3 years I'd hate to see how long something they put on the backburner would take..... they made a simple process overly complex and showed no spine when they needed to.

At the end of the day they still needed a treaty to be signed between two sovereign states before they could get rid of him .... hardly a deportation and then there's the small matter of how much it has all cost!!!

And they are patting themselves on the back! W4nkers!

You're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't. I'm happy the ******'s gone, and because the Government stuck to rules and removed him fairly means there's less chance of him ever coming back..

And I am sure you would be singing a different tune if Milliband had taken over three years to remove him (which beiing as useless as Cameron he would have done of course), but there you go

Ummm, he agreed to leave of his own accord. Our gov simply provided a free flight for him.

I'd still love to know why he is hated soo much. Why did the press have such a campaign against what seems like some old bloke.

Wikipedia is your friend.

I think the main reason is that his constant (and successful) appeals by the human rights lawyers made it looks like 'we' were powerless to get rid of certain undesirable Islamists from our country, plus it reminded 'us' that we let then all in (stupidly) in the first place, Finsbury park mosque, etc. So in a sense he is emblematic or symbolic aside from his alleged crimes.

Abu Qatada's wife and five children are expected to remain in Britain, where he first came in 1993 seeking asylum.
At the taxpayers expense, no doubt.

According to Wikipedia he was the inspiration for the 911 attacks. So the Americans let him live here whilst they started the war of terror. Seriously, I know credibility doesn't mean much these days but this is sheer comedy gold.

I don't fall into the sheeple category and as far as in aware he was not found guilty for any offence in the UK but the press had a smear campaign against him for allegedly being accused of terror abroad and he just showed the system for what it is. Don't blame Abu blame the system that allowed him to stay in the first place.

If he is genuinely guilty of terrorism then inshallah he will face severe punishment or possibly the death penalty. If he is innocent after all then I really do hope he is released and free to return as an innocent man. Yes I know some of you will be spilling your coffees or boiling your **** but as I said I'm not sheeple and we are still a free country with freedom of speech.

We have nastier people than Abu. How about Anjem and his mate Tommie Robinson. They are both hate preachers who could do with being deported somewhere.

We shouldn't be giving residency or asylum to anyone even remotely connected to terrorism. That's just what I think.

I agree with that however we can't just blacklist a person because he's once been accused, trailed and found innocent.

No, I wouldn't. Unlike you, I don't constantly try to put a negative spin on a piece of good news. Like I said, I'm just happy he's gone back to Jordan and now we have one less hate preacher in this country.

Sorry, but that's crap. You would and we all know it!

As for negative spin it took over 3 years and cost millions of our money, forgive me for not dancing in the f**king street!!!!!!!!!

Yes, but let's not let that sort of thing get in the way of Cameron patting himself on the back.

3 years? I thought he was detained in 2005 pending deportation.
Where does this three years bit come from?

Cameron's meandering speech this morning. Even I can't blame the previous 5 years on him... that would be the other bunch of spineless cretins!

Just looking at the majority of your posts on this forum it is evident that nearly everything f**ks you off. Every post has a negative slant or a criticism one way or another, you are the 'Victor Meldrew' of NSR. Perhaps you need a **** to get over your negative disposition. Before anyone says otherwise, this is not an invitation!
