Probably worse ...but hey if that's the result of a free, fair and impartial trial, then even though I'm against the death penalty, so be it...

"It may have been frustrating but always better to do it the right way."

Definitely. I actually think we've got some of the best judicial processes in the world right here ...at the end of the day the issue was not about Quatada (or however you spell it) himself but whether a fair trial can be based solely on evidence obtained by torture. My own view is that it can't, however inconvenient that might be at the time...

No, I'll admit to it too. I always heard Radovan Karadzic as bag of red cabbages for some reason. Brains are funny things.

On a more serious note, he might be saving his last appeal request for the tarmac.

It's not a choice really. The money would have been spent on something else in the justice system. The budgets don't work like that, even if we might want them to.

It was worth every penny.

The argument about better off spending the money on other things is ridiculous, Billions goes into care for the elderly and sick in this country.

Maybe better care should have been taken way back in 1993 by the Home Office and Immigration Service into looking into his extremist views before allowing him asylum.

Questions should have been asked then why he had entered the UK on a forged passport.

My concern there (apart from the ridiculous cost) is that IF, by some chance, he is found innocent in Jordan, he can then apply to come back here to be with his family as, to be separated from them would infringe his right to a 'family life'. They should have been shipped out with him.

The sum of £1.7m has mentioned in various places. It's not clear if that goes back to Michael Howard's days of trying to deal with this case or just in this parliament.

As to him being able to return if Jordan find him innocent, well he'll now need to show he earns a minimum salary and has savings too. Of course the Home Secretary may choose to block any individual from entry to the country.

For the hand 'em/shoot 'em people, we are only able to criticise others if we follow the rule of law here. That has been done, comprehensively, now.

Not really. I have no choice in paying them, what other choice dis we have to remove him from the country lawfully?? I don't believe there is a department lawyers 4 u that could have done it cheaper could they?

We wanted rid of the man and now he has gone. It has cost x amount to do so. Money we'll spent really because if we hadn't of spent it he would still be here sponging off us and pausing us off. Getting angry about the cost achieves nothing.

Teresa May has stated she is planning reforms to male sure we don't have to go through that again in the future. That's all we can hope for really.

Usual crop of rational and irrational posts. Bit of Islamic hatred thrown in as usual along with the people behaving as if they personally have footed the entire bill.

I have a concern about what exactly he's been found guilty of? Never tried in the UK, never been found guilty in the UK. Most information about him

Comes from politicians and the press (neither of them particularly trustworthy)

Glad he's gone, glad we used due process. His family by the way are not guilty of a crime or do we now get to despise the entirely family group based on hatred of one person in the family?

Exactly what other countries did he pass through to get here?, because according to C4 news he flew from Jordan to the United Arab Emirates where he picked up a forged passport and then flew to Britain.

The UAE don't give asylum to immigrants from other countries.

I often wonder why bandwagons are so full. I suspect most of the hatred for Abu Banana is directed at him by people who have no idea what he's supposed to have done, what he is or isn't guilty of, what he said (actually said, not what the press said he said).

But what they absolutely know is, that they hate him!

I wonder how easy it would be to identify a totally innocent person (no I don't think he's totally innocent) and make them the most hated man in a country?

Remember in any public conversation the following rules apply to what was said

1) What you think you said

2) What they think you said

3) What you actually said

4) What the media said you said

Of these, usually only number 3 is accurate and nobody remembers that bit

Not if (rightly, or wrongly) you can claim refugee status, given that a false passport may have been the only way out of the country you were fleeing from.

There are plenty of genuine refugees fleeing the likes of Somalia, Syria, Iran and Iraq at the moment that come in on false passports and are allowed to stay (and will never cause or incite harm to anyone).

I was merely replying to the above post -but yes, some definitely do deserve refugee status but in my opinion, not 'hava banana'.

I watched one of his sermons on TV & if you're denouncing anything but the Muslim faith then I feel he picked the wrong country - only there's hardly a middle eastern country that practices freedom of speech, so I found him to be extremely hypocritical.

This has been a bugbear of mine or many years. People who say, bring in this law, bring in that law, I don't care as it doesn't affect me because I'm a law-abiding citizen.

Yep, I too have traveled through (but not lived) corrupt countries, but I've also lived in a country that had far less corruption than here; police, politicians, judges, press, bankers, etc...... it's easy - & many politicians do it all the time, I've noticed - to compare to countries lower down the human rights scale, but there doesn't seem to be the will to improve the system.

Actually I'd say it

Was better than most of the developed world. Especially as the majority of the developed world base their systems on the British system. I'd say it's better than most of Europe as well. You clearly don't like the system of justice here but I'm confused as to why.

Is it that abu banana shouldn't have received a fair hearing and that the Birmingham should? Or Stuart hall shouldn't have been treated so leniently but that is being reviewed based on evidence not on emotion and "dislike". British Justice system has problems but isn't as broken as you seem to believe. But then I don't read the daily mail or daily express so I probably don't know the "truth". The reality is that Abu thingy wasn't deported originally because he was going to be prosecuted in a foreign country based on torture. The same btw could happen to any of us who travel and I'm sure we'd like Britain legal system to stand up for us as well.

Yes, most of the capitalist world base their legal system on the British system because lets face it, the richer you are the more you can get away with crime - that's what it was designed for, by the upper classes of course. Best in the world at this, best in the world at that - it's all self proclamation!

I remember how it was drummed in to me as a kid through the media - but when I did escape Maggie's farm, I found my suspicions to be correct.

You 'cannot' have a fair & balanced society that can truly call itself 'Great' or 'United' when you've this despicable, antiquated class system concreted in to society. It stinks!!!
