illegal immigrant gets cat and boyfriend which proves? See bottom of page.

For as long as I have been here, this issue has gone unresolved. In spite of promises to end the practice of following the dictates of a European court in matters pertaining to the laws and courts here, there are literally thousands of criminals from from other EU countries, that have found a haven using human rights laws.
What makes matters worse, are the idiot judges here who allow it to go on.  In this particular case pictured below, it’s a petty crime with regard to the theft.
But the fact is, there are rapists and stone cold killers who just have not been deported as they should have been. We can thank civil rights lawyers as well as jerks for judges for this state of affairs as well.

Now at last, things appear to be moving in the right direction but please don’t hold any collective breaths.  I have been here long enough to know that until whatever is promised or voted on actually happens, then it’s all smoke and mirrors.

Stop giving foreign criminals a right to stay in the UK, say MPs following landmark vote

* MPs ordered judges to stop granting foreign rapists and killers a ‘human right’ to stay in Britain

* 1,888 overseas offenders played the legal system by lodging appeals under the legislation last year

* 409 were allowed to stay – 185 of them because the criminal had a right to a ‘family life’ here

By JAMES SLACK

In a landmark vote, MPs last night ordered judges to stop granting foreign rapists and killers a ‘human right’ to stay in Britain.

The motion – the first of its kind – was passed after the Commons heard the horrifying scale of the way overseas convicts are abusing Labour’s controversial Human Rights Act.

According to Home Office figures, 1,888 overseas offenders played the legal system by lodging appeals under the legislation last year.

Of these, 409 were allowed to stay – 185 of them because the criminal had a right to a ‘family life’ here under Article 8 of the Act.

This is despite the fact that, in many cases, the convicts destroyed British families by their actions.

Decision: The motion was tabled by Home Secretary Theresa May

The motion, tabled by Home Secretary Theresa May, sets down guidelines for Britain’s own human rights judges – who MPs accuse of ‘gold-plating’ the Act and the European Convention on Human Rights.

It follows the separate vote by MPs, aimed at Strasbourg, which delivered a resounding verdict that Parliament is not prepared to grant the vote to prisoners.

The guidelines mean any foreign convict jailed for more than four years should be booted out when their sentence is complete – regardless of their right to a ‘family life’.

Foreign criminals given longer than 12 months will also normally be removed, but could stay if they have young children who have spent most of their lives here.

Mrs May told MPs: ‘For too long the rights of foreign criminals have been placed above the rights of the British public. We are putting that right.

‘We are making clear the British public’s right to protection from crime trumps a foreign criminal’s weak claim to family life. We are allowing the views of Parliament to be heard on this issue loud and clear.

‘We trust the courts will give due weight to a statement from this House.’
Shadow Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said Labour agreed ‘there is a problem with the public not being able to understand’ verdicts in which foreign criminals are spared from being deported.

Tory MPs said there was a danger that judges would simply ignore the vote.

They pointed out that judges have repeatedly extended the meaning of ‘family life’ to include migrants who are not married or do not have children.

Tory MP Dominic Raab said: ‘As the Lord Chief Justice has made clear, the UK courts won’t restore some common sense unless directed by an Act of Parliament.’

Mrs May said that if judges ignored the guidelines, she was prepared to legislate.

The rules, which will be implemented within weeks, say anyone from outside the European Economic Area who is jailed for at least four years should ‘almost always’ face deportation.

Now then, am I reading this correctly? See this line?

“anyone from outside the European Economic Area who is jailed for at least four years should ‘almost always’ face deportation.”

First of all ..... what’s with the “almost always” routine?  And may we assume and I think it’s worded that way, that those vermin from inside the EU will get a break, and it’s just the ones outside who will be deported.
Have I read that correctly?

This bit of insanity below illustrates how dire things are now.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
