Immigration Bill Amendment Would Strip British Terror Suspects Of Passport And Citizenship (POLL)

First topic message reminder :

British terror suspects could be stripped of their passports and citizenship following a last-minute change to the Immigration Bill by the Home Secretary. The new amendment, a sop to Tory backbenchers desperate for more punitive legislation, was tabled by Theresa May on Wednesday, and would allow for the removal of a UK passport for any suspect whose actions are deemed “seriously prejudicial to the vital interests of the UK”.

Under current legislation, the Home Secretary can already withdraw British citizenship from anyone with dual nationality, howe ver, the amendment would give May the power to make people stateless regardless of any naturalisation as a British citizen.

The move drew immediate condemnation, most notably from director of Liberty Shami Chakrabarti, who said: "Liberty always said that terror suspects should be charged and tried. First politicians avoided trials for foreign nationals; now they seek the same for their own citizens."

The campaigner added: "This move is as irresponsible as it is unjust. It would allow British Governments to dump dangerous people on the international community, but equally to punish potential innocent political dissenters without charge or trial. There is the edge of populist madness and then the abyss."

The Immigration Bill is scheduled to return to the Commons on Thursday evening, with May and David Cameron braced for a backbench revolt.

Its what i remember.

Any casualty would have been devastating for their loved ones.

Oh. I had no idea, whilst sitting in my huge big house paid for by working people, that there was any trouble with “foreigners”.

See, us rich folk, born into money, we don’t give a stuff about poor people because we burn money. We eat money. We make money and we laugh at money.
We have no understanding about “struggle”, and nor should we want to!

Where are my hats? I shall donate at least one of them to poor immagrants.

I shan’t miss it. I have bloody loads.

Ha ha.

It's kind of like on Friends, where Phoebe used to live in a box, while Monica and Ross's dad drove a Porsche, right? At the end of the day, we all just have to find a way to get along and be there for another, especially when the rain starts to pour. And you know you've got a real friend when they've been there before.

I bet if you were to ask the majority of these immigrants, they'd tell you it hasn't been their day, their week, their month, or even their year!
