Bday Prang Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 If she did get back in to the UK a life on (enhanced) unemployment benefits is pretty much inevitable, at least until she accumulates the wealth and celebrity status which she is assured. I would love to be a fly on the wall at one of her "back to work" interviews. Particularly the bit where they ask about what life skills she has amassed during her life, and her strengths and weaknesses, and what she might bring to the table. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnybangkok Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 40 minutes ago, Bday Prang said: People who are not british citizens or who are in the process of having that privilege withdrawn should not be entitled to legal aid. If that potentially leads to a "rocky road downwards for justice" then so be it I have no issues with that whatsoever. Especially considering that true british citizens who have become expats in Thailand for example have their pensions frozen , lose their ability to vote, and can be refused medical treatment on the NHS All of which would be available to her if she returned to the UK. in fact to really rub salt in the wound, she would be entitled to jump any NHS queues for medical attention and no doubt get immediate access to NHS dental treatment as well Yes I have heard of pro-bono now tell me where it was mentioned on the op Moving quickly past all of your strawman arguments with pensions, voting rights et al, you are arguing that someone shouldn't be awarded legal aid to contest the removal of their citizenship because they have already had it removed (what is actually being contested) or 'are in the process of having that privilege withdrawn' The fact you cannot see the irony in what you are professing speaks volumes to your bias. UK law stands proudly on the world stage for it's fairness and accessibility and you cannot just arbitrarily choose who does/doesn't get legal aid because of your personal prejudices. And the fact you are quite so willing to throw the baby out with the bath water negates any sensible argument you may have had. Oh and I mentioned pro bono because you insisted that all solicitors were just 'motivated solely by money'. The fact that pro bono exists completely negates that argument too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be a special tax levied on all muslims in the UK ( and their apologists) to help recover the costs of this and all the atrocities committed in the name of islam. It has cost the tax payer 5 million for her legal fees to date and rising.🥴 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and I mentioned pro bono because you insisted that all solicitors were just 'motivated solely by money'. The fact that pro bono exists completely negates that argument too. There is no sensible argument for wanting to allow her back into the uk. There is no sensible argument for spending millions debating the matter either. The UK is, thanks to our home grown liberal lefties . a laughing stock in the eyes of the rest of the world, and has been identified by islamist extremists as a very legitimate and very soft target. Desperate times require desperate measures., plenty of "human rights" were suspended as a result of a recent pandemic, no reason why a few more can't be suspended, in response to the terrorist threat, and for people behaving like Begum. after all they are not too big on human rights in the countries these traitors choose to emigrate too The removal of free legal aid for all foreigners would be a great start, and something we really could be proud of Anybody that thinks lawyers are not motivated by money is clearly delusional. The UK has little to be proud regarding the legal aid system , penniless scum who make up the majority of miscreants get free legal representation, Large corporate bodies have no problem affording the extortionate costs involved , but the average man in the street is not entitled to any assistance in that respect, and in most instances selling his house and using his life savings would not even scratch the surface. even relatively wealthy people have rendered themselves bankrupt paying for legal representation So an islamic extremist rapes your daughter his legal team is free for him in fact your taxes pay for it you daughters legal team assuming she has a job and is a productive member of society ii not free in fact you would have to sell your house just to raise a deposit Of course you are fine with that state of affairs 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some will always grovel before the Islamist assault on our culture and values and feeling all virtuous, tolerant and liberal for it! Soppy handwringers, and virtue signalling tolerance ? Admittedly words I have used my self when describing such people, but I genuinely believe those words are fast becoming somewhat inappropriate. Worryingly the time is quickly approaching where words like "treasonous" , " traitor" and "threat to national security" would be more accurate. and where holding such views would render one liable to severe penalties, I would suggest imprisonment followed by exile to a suitably intolerant muslim country, where they can enjoy the benefits ( or otherwise) of the culture and values they would be happy to see inflicted on the UK and every other western democracy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
