Nearly every single act of terrorism in the UK over the last 50 years has been committed by those born in the UK. A massive overreaction on your part to ban all refugees because of a dangerous few. Correct but there's no point in trying to debate that fact with those on here who continually keep their fingers in their ears whilst whistling. They have a fixed agenda, a hatred for foreigners of all types as they see them as a threat to their perceived 'cushy' lives because those coming to live in the UK have a much, much stronger work ethic. These same blinkered people will make up all sorts of excuses and smear to dnegrate these people, even blaming huge generic groups of 'terrorism' even though as you say, nearly all those commiting acts of 'terror' are in fact British. Don't waste your time with these inward and backward looking muppets, the world's a much, much bigger and better place than what's found in their tiny minds.

So they were born in the UK - so what. Their allegiance obviously was/is not to the UK. IRA killers were not British in any real sense of the word despite probably being born in Northern Ireland. The numerous Islamic related terrorists who happened to be born in England are not either. Similarly people born in India to British families when it was colony were/are not in any real sense Indian.

Well firstly, I don't think any approach can be 100% successful. Sure, what we want is the most successful system. The lives of children and adults walking about now, depend on it. More are going to die due to well...essentially the expedience of ideology. Originally posted by jamiemartin721
How exactly is that going to work - aren't you only going to know that someone is a threat after you've acquired sufficient evidence to build a case for deporting them. At which point, you're effectively deporting someone, with extensive knowledge of the UK and radical circles in the UK, to a country where there is likely to be radical groups. That's just putting assets into enemy hands. I think this is a weak argument. Let's say that we arrange a deportation arrangement with pakistan. Now it's true that this is where these radicals exist anyway....but 'putting assets into enemy hands' is moot when these morons are mostly free to travel there at any point anyway. Having knowledge of the UK is hardly significant in the world of the Internet and when the people you deport can't come back. Any information they have to give could be given over the Internet anyway.....moot. I would require the security services to gain the agreement of a judge on the anti state activities of an individual before deportation. This is only suggested as a failsafe requirement against abuse of the system. It isn't perfect....but that's half the problem...the perfect system never exists and that's another excuse for inaction.

Surely if you've established someone is a threat, you should either move to convict or take them out of circulation. Plus you also then need to map out the people they've been in contact with, to find out who else they might be working with. Nope, not in my book. I've thought about detention and come to the conclusion it doesn't work. The numbers involved are likely to be too high and that is even before we touch on the human rights lawyers. I see this happening eventually....we just have to go through a large number of bodies hitting the floor before it does unfortunately. But at least I can say I wasn't in the crowd that supported inaction and what amounts to tacid acceptance of what's coming. Originally posted by jamiemartin721
Also where do you deport people who are British born? How exactly are you going to 'reform'. I quite agree with the idea of encouraging the moderates and the reformers. Or are you talking about the idea of just drawing an arbitrary line and deporting people who haven't actually committed any crime or threat, other than have ideas you might not like. Nationality and citizens/subjects rights should be in the gift of the state. I would make it easier to strip nationality. As for where? There are plenty of countries I view as suitable personally. For me, this is a financial transaction and the moving of the radically pious to a country more....radically pious. Again, those not on watch lists are not of a concern to me......A good half of the Islamic population of Britain hold views that I find disturbing as a secularist.....But I'm not advocating any of this for them other than reform and the closing down of religious schools.

I think its probably true that they did, seems that way. Well done, you predicted it. The left weren't dismissing those concerns, they were dismissing your view that it justified ending any asylum. Yes they were.

No, those are accidents. I think we should treat them proportionally to the deliberate acts of others that criminally affect peoples lives. I don't believe that we should treat whole groups of people as being guilty, on the basis of actions of individuals. We should deal with the risk as best we can. Sadly, we didn't, we decided not take a proactive approach to dealing with refugees, i.e. selecting people from the camps when they arrive there, and you can work out who they are, where they're from and verify that.
