"Rights" uproar re: Philip Lawrence's killer

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Now that situation is a "right bag of mickeys".

Those teachers forum posts are actually quite bizarre. I don't know the HRA, but when I see people (who I would otherwise assume are rational and sane adults) deploring human rights legislation and calling for reintroduction of the death penalty, I honestly don't know what to think anymore.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

I'd worry about the next generation. If that's who will be educating the future of this country, then I want OUT.

Personally i think it doesn't matter where Chindamo is jailed, but it's logic he should stay where the murder was committed and and judge by that law....and.... i agree with you, Sinny, Mr Lawrence never come back
thanks...my Lord...i'm unbeliver
tear up your pants for psicho...and jump on him

@ dark - personal opinions stay very much out of the classroom. hopefully. or i wouldn't be teaching in a church school (albeit a bit fuzzy on that score) and i'd prob be considered undesirable

It doesn't matter if he was here legally or not. There is a section in British law that gives a Court the right to deport anyone not born in this country following their conviction for an offence. This doesn't just relate to Crown Courts, Magistrates Courts also have that power. That is not to say that just because they could do this that a Court should do this. One other point is that Human Rights as enshrined in the 200 Act are conditional and not absolute rights (Most court and solicitors have no concept of this) and any Country that signed up to the treaty can suspend any of these rights at any time if the rights are not compatible with the laws of that particular Country.

He was a minor. Can you cite the paragraph which includes juvenile offences?

Have to look that one up. Unfortunately it's about 10.30pm and the library's shut.

Like father like son, his old man is doing time for stabbing his former girlfriend to death in Gran Canaria and also served 15 years for throwing sulphuric acid in a womans face, nice family.
