Apparently Bangladesh has denied her citizenship. Holland is doubtful.

Hi Mercalia :) , Sorry to be pedantic. But shouldn't it be "Good Riddance" to her? But anyway, she wouldn't be a "Stateless Person" as has been alleged! But she is entitled to a Dutch Passport by marriage, with a Bangladeshi Passport possibly a fall-back position? We hung Willia...

Whatever motivated people to vote, the MP has a duty to represent all constituents, as they see fit, regardless of how they voted. But MPs are not delegates: they consult but don't take orders. So they cannot possibly please everyone.

I don't know the rules about mobile phones but as far as I am concerned, the consequences are the same as when driving a car: your attention is at least partly where it shouldn't be. Cyclists are vulnerable enough without cycling only half alert.

I can guarantee there will end up with footage of him on a labour platform sooner or later. He's too vain to avoid it! And even if that didn't happen someone with ill-will would stick a microphone in front of him in the street and ask for his views. Indeed. Look how Farage, who is a nobody, is cons...

Eleven defections is actually a massive event. I'm not sure if any MP actually sticks to the party manifesto. Or any Governmnt for that matter. So you could say that the proposed policies were just to get a foot in the door: beyond election night they have little value. As far as the Tory MPs go, I ...

I agree,Degsy is nowt but trouble.

Not that I am a member of the Labour Party but a party which welcomes Hatton would not make me feel at home.

I fear that the Home Secretary's target audience for announcements such as this are the Murdoch Press and the Daily Mail. Justice, rightness and protecting the UK have little to do it.

Lord Hawhaw was brought back here and faced the weight of the law.

I assume MM is liverpudlian (I refuse to use the term Scouser). I'm very interested to know his real opinions on Degsy. I have mine. Coming from a Liverpool born and bred parent / background I grew up (both physically and politically) with news of Degsy and the Liverpool militant problem. In the ca...

Would these involve rock bottom?

If I were Honda and found that if I repatriated to Japan where a deal had just been struck enabling me to sell my cars to the best market on Earth at zero tariff I know what I would do. Whether or not I came out and said "Brexit is to blame" is pretty irrelevant, given that if I remained i...

I profoundly disagree with doing this without due process. Due process is being followed. he Power to Deprive Citizenship 55.3.1 General Power 55.3.1.1Under s.40 of the 1981 Act, as amended by the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002from 1 April 2003 and by the Immigration, Asylum and Natio...

So Mrs May is off again to Brussells.

Whatever must her weekly visit be costing? Just to have the same conversation with the same outcome every time.

I profoundly disagree with doing this without due process. She should have faced the courts. When a politician uses executive power to determine what happens to a citizen we are in dangerous territory. In this instance the teenaged woman did something pretty nasty, although more by giving succour th...
