Terrorist suspects

Given recent events at Liverpool I was thinking. MI5 claim there are a few thousand people of foreign origin on their terrorist watch list.

To reduce this risk should we be more draconian and just deport anyone who they think is a risk? Though that pushes the problem to someone else. Should we round them up and “intern” them?

Or should we use Mrs Thatcher’s doctrine and just quietly start “taking them out” for the good of the people?

The numbers are very worrying , there is no easy solution, any sign of ‘wrong doing’ and they should be deported (if they are foreign )

Nothing to see here

The thing that didn't happen outside a hospital in Liverpool yesterday was just a figment of your imagination and you can remain confident that the thing that didn't happen yesterday will never...not happen again

Just to clarify

Foreign was the question not U.K. terrorists but if they are U.K. it’s our problem so option 2 and 3 are the choices.

I was just wondering around what we should do.

Keeping these suspects on lists doesn't do much good. Neither does the Prevent programme.

We have to accept that these people are ideologically opposed to democracy.

We have to start, as a society, speaking up for democracy. We have to defend equality before the law and free speech.

We should teach those values in schools. We should defend them at all times.

Nothing will change until we stand up and defend what we stand for

I personally have conflicting views.

It would be useful to know what the threshold is to get on the watch list..

is it a dodgy book in the house , is it evidence of thoughts texted? Is it watching too much terrorist daily tv? Is it looking at bomb plans online? Or is it walking out to blow up some innocent children at a concert?

I want freedom and innocent until proven guilty but Thatchers approach did spark some initial talking from the IRA.

Like I said I’m asking but I don’t have a conviction on it.

The problem is that laws are skewed in favour of refugees. Even after they commit a crime, it's not that easy to deport them. Doing it based on speculation is close to impossible. Don't even get me started on the crowds that would gather in front of the deportation flights and protest in favour of criminals. But if we assume it's possible, they should be deported for sure.

There must be a way to filter the ones with extreme mindsets before they enter. Force them to write an essay in support of homosexuality if they need asylum? Make them take a look at certain paintings that they get angry about and see how they react? I have plenty of ideas

I think your question speaks volumes. We have become so relativistic that we, as a country, no longer know what we stand for.

Actually, most people do know what we stand for but our woke culture speaking only for a minority, has dominance in the country.

We stand for freedom of thought, the right to express those thoughts, equality before the law, free access to the public square, rule by the people, common law and the sovereignty of the people.

Sadly too many people are too mealy-mouthed to speak up for those views.

What do you think our values should be?

There is no "simple answer".

The area is complex .

It needs careful thought and consideration, knee jerk reaction to this crime will help no one except perhaps the terrorists.

If you deport them, they will get back into the country illegally. Didn't 1000 people cross the channel recently, how many never got spotted?

The thing is. The Uk houses the most groups around the world.

The truth is if we csnt control our borders. Then polotitions favor one culture from another. Nothing will chsnge. The only thing has changed is british people are not united no more. They would rather film an incident rather than stop it.

Also british people plan to live. Save to live. Save to start a family.

When I was growing up the values nearly all of us grew up with were those of accepting democracy. Of accepting that other people had different views and were entitled to them.

We no longer assert those values. It's as if we are ashamed to assert them. And so we have people who don't support those values.

We should start teaching them to our young

Getting PIP if I read it right, is not easy to do. Like people with cancer get refused PIP.

Getting sectioned is also hard, the reason being that the hospitals don't have the beds. A friend was critically ill. Community psych nurse didn't want to section him, no beds. A bed was eventually found and he was then sectioned. The bed was in Scarborough, he was from billingham.

You have absolutely no idea what being ‘sectioned’ involves, you certainly don’t get PIP based on that, how ever, of course people ‘screw ‘ the system , you should spend a bit of time with homeless people mate, they aren’t all liars abs scammers did I say they where please show me that ?

"I personally have conflicting views.

It would be useful to know what the threshold is to get on the watch list..

is it a dodgy book in the house , is it evidence of thoughts texted? Is it watching too much terrorist daily tv? Is it looking at bomb plans online? Or is it walking out to blow up some innocent children at a concert?

I want freedom and innocent until proven guilty but Thatchers approach did spark some initial talking from the IRA.

Like I said I’m asking but I don’t have a conviction on it.

Did thatchers approach to the ira spark talks from the ira or was it ira approach to thatcher that sparked talks from thatcher?

It was thatcher who vowed never to negotiate with terrorists and then she did.

Seperate subject tho

"

Chicken and egg and we will never know in reality but my money is on talking was better than quietly disappearing. She didn’t end the fight but I think she opened the door for others to follow.

Like Reagan telling the Russians he was going for Star Wars which in trying to keep up would bankrupt Russia. They came to the table as they knew it was the end of their arms ace. Reagan wasn’t going to spend that money.

The truth is if we csnt control our borders. Then polotitions favor one culture from another. Nothing will chsnge. The only thing has changed is british people are not united no more. They would rather film an incident rather than stop it.

Also british people plan to live. Save to live. Save to start a family.

"Given recent events at Liverpool I was thinking. MI5 claim there are a few thousand people of foreign origin on their terrorist watch list.

To reduce this risk should we be more draconian and just deport anyone who they think is a risk? Though that pushes the problem to someone else. Should we round them up and “intern” them?

Or should we use Mrs Thatcher’s doctrine and just quietly start “taking them out” for the good of the people?

"

Much as I have no love for any terrorists, I do fear that taking the harder lines that you suggest would be a huge leap towards very bad things. The problem is: what are the criteria for someone to be judged as a risk to be eliminated? Is it to have been found guilty of serious crimes against the state in an open court of law? Is it to be a person that the security services have information against, but for reasons of "national interest" could not be prosecuted in open court? Is it sufficient to just be the wrong colour and religion? Can you end up being "taken out" just because you had an argument about the condition of your dividing fence with the next-door-neighbour who unbeknown to you works for MI5? Could it be that power would end up directly in the hands of government ministers, with no public oversight, giving them absolute authority to do exactly what they like to whomever they want?

The deciding of what is "for the good of the people" is a very dangerous power to remove from public oversight, as that is exactly how dictatorships do arise. "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?". Who watches the watchmen? Would any of us trust the likes of Priti Patel, Liz Truss, Dominic Raab, Boris Johnson, or anyone else in the current cabinet with unconstrained power of life-and-death?

It is very easy to say that "oh, the security services, the government, would never abuse that sort of power". Unfortunately history says otherwise. And even if it is judged that the current government would be safe hands to grant the power to (IMHO no!), then what about the next government inheriting that power? What about when a government decides that it's not foreigners that are the big danger, but those of the wrong religion, that only fully paid up church going christians can be trusted? (Some republicans in the USA are already saying this...). What if the danger is immoral behaviour? And swingers suddenly became the enemy?

There are no easy answers, but "taking a harder line" seldom seems to work out well in history.

Well that’s two of you who’ve picked up on the “what’s good for the people” . Thank you . That’s where I believe this style of government is taking us.

I’m not advocating any of the choices I was trying to gauge where people are sitting on this in our little circle on fab.

We have created a global terrorist monster with our military interference in the Middle East and now we have questions that we can’t answer.

Are we learning ?? I don’t think so .

We cut aid but buy more guns.

Instead of exporting oil they they are now exporting their daily nightmare to us.

"Getting back to the OP...

Given recent events at Liverpool I was thinking. MI5 claim there are a few thousand people of foreign origin on their terrorist watch list.

To reduce this risk should we be more draconian and just deport anyone who they think is a risk? Though that pushes the problem to someone else. Should we round them up and “intern” them?

Or should we use Mrs Thatcher’s doctrine and just quietly start “taking them out” for the good of the people?

Much as I have no love for any terrorists, I do fear that taking the harder lines that you suggest would be a huge leap towards very bad things. The problem is: what are the criteria for someone to be judged as a risk to be eliminated? Is it to have been found guilty of serious crimes against the state in an open court of law? Is it to be a person that the security services have information against, but for reasons of "national interest" could not be prosecuted in open court? Is it sufficient to just be the wrong colour and religion? Can you end up being "taken out" just because you had an argument about the condition of your dividing fence with the next-door-neighbour who unbeknown to you works for MI5? Could it be that power would end up directly in the hands of government ministers, with no public oversight, giving them absolute authority to do exactly what they like to whomever they want?

The deciding of what is "for the good of the people" is a very dangerous power to remove from public oversight, as that is exactly how dictatorships do arise. "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?". Who watches the watchmen? Would any of us trust the likes of Priti Patel, Liz Truss, Dominic Raab, Boris Johnson, or anyone else in the current cabinet with unconstrained power of life-and-death?

It is very easy to say that "oh, the security services, the government, would never abuse that sort of power". Unfortunately history says otherwise. And even if it is judged that the current government would be safe hands to grant the power to (IMHO no!), then what about the next government inheriting that power? What about when a government decides that it's not foreigners that are the big danger, but those of the wrong religion, that only fully paid up church going christians can be trusted? (Some republicans in the USA are already saying this...). What if the danger is immoral behaviour? And swingers suddenly became the enemy?

There are no easy answers, but "taking a harder line" seldom seems to work out well in history.

Well that’s two of you who’ve picked up on the “what’s good for the people” . Thank you . That’s where I believe this style of government is taking us.

I’m not advocating any of the choices I was trying to gauge where people are sitting on this in our little circle on fab.

We have created a global terrorist monster with our military interference in the Middle East and now we have questions that we can’t answer.

Are we learning ?? I don’t think so .

We cut aid but buy more guns.

Instead of exporting oil they they are now exporting their daily nightmare to us.

Where’s the plan ??"

jackal mate your talking like it was a bed of roses there before the U.K. ever set foot there it’s a fucking basket case always as been always will there centuries behind the west it’s best left alone

Exactly, we should never have gone there. Every overseas military intervention we do, just makes things worse. But like it or not, we've already had our armies fucking over these countries (thank you to Mr Blair and most every PM after, and probably a few before as well), and now our government has absolutely no idea how to fix things.

And no, I don't claim to know what to do either, we just shouldn't have gone there in the first place.

I went to school with kids from Iraq and Iran. I’ve still got friends there. They had a functioning open society although Saddam was a twat he kept a lid on the tribal bollocks and the extremists in Iraq. Just like the mullahs control Iran. Yes I hate their repression too but the shah was also a twat but a friendlier twat to us.

We had no plan when we destroyed the Iraq society. We disbanded everything that makes a functioning government including the army. Half of ISIS started with the unemployed Iraqi army.

The only building not attacked during the gulf war was the oil ministry. What a surprise.

If we’d had a plan then the country wouldn’t have collapsed and it would not have fed the extremists.

Theses were once great civilisations and oil brought them crashing into the twentieth century.

Think about it, if we had turned medieval,Britain into an industrial country in a few decades the country would still be full of extremist catholic’s and Protestants believing god was in the clouds and everyone ignoring their religion should burnt at the stake.

It might be an idea to read the whole thing before posting it

It’s aimed at terrorists who are currently abroad who the uk does not want here. It’s got my full support!

If they want to go join terrorist organisations who mutilate and kill people for not being in their special club then fuckem!!!

Being a tv what do you think they would do to you?

Why is that funny??

He isn't laughing at the prospect of murder... he's laughing at someone being so ill-informed as to support terrorists who would wish to kill him.

You knew that"

"Getting back to the OP...

Given recent events at Liverpool I was thinking. MI5 claim there are a few thousand people of foreign origin on their terrorist watch list.

To reduce this risk should we be more draconian and just deport anyone who they think is a risk? Though that pushes the problem to someone else. Should we round them up and “intern” them?

Or should we use Mrs Thatcher’s doctrine and just quietly start “taking them out” for the good of the people?

Much as I have no love for any terrorists, I do fear that taking the harder lines that you suggest would be a huge leap towards very bad things. The problem is: what are the criteria for someone to be judged as a risk to be eliminated? Is it to have been found guilty of serious crimes against the state in an open court of law? Is it to be a person that the security services have information against, but for reasons of "national interest" could not be prosecuted in open court? Is it sufficient to just be the wrong colour and religion? Can you end up being "taken out" just because you had an argument about the condition of your dividing fence with the next-door-neighbour who unbeknown to you works for MI5? Could it be that power would end up directly in the hands of government ministers, with no public oversight, giving them absolute authority to do exactly what they like to whomever they want?

The deciding of what is "for the good of the people" is a very dangerous power to remove from public oversight, as that is exactly how dictatorships do arise. "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?". Who watches the watchmen? Would any of us trust the likes of Priti Patel, Liz Truss, Dominic Raab, Boris Johnson, or anyone else in the current cabinet with unconstrained power of life-and-death?

It is very easy to say that "oh, the security services, the government, would never abuse that sort of power". Unfortunately history says otherwise. And even if it is judged that the current government would be safe hands to grant the power to (IMHO no!), then what about the next government inheriting that power? What about when a government decides that it's not foreigners that are the big danger, but those of the wrong religion, that only fully paid up church going christians can be trusted? (Some republicans in the USA are already saying this...). What if the danger is immoral behaviour? And swingers suddenly became the enemy?

There are no easy answers, but "taking a harder line" seldom seems to work out well in history.

Well that’s two of you who’ve picked up on the “what’s good for the people” . Thank you . That’s where I believe this style of government is taking us.

I’m not advocating any of the choices I was trying to gauge where people are sitting on this in our little circle on fab.

We have created a global terrorist monster with our military interference in the Middle East and now we have questions that we can’t answer.

Are we learning ?? I don’t think so .

We cut aid but buy more guns.

Instead of exporting oil they they are now exporting their daily nightmare to us.

Where’s the plan ??jackal mate your talking like it was a bed of roses there before the U.K. ever set foot there it’s a fucking basket case always as been always will there centuries behind the west it’s best left alone

I went to school with kids from Iraq and Iran. I’ve still got friends there. They had a functioning open society although Saddam was a twat he kept a lid on the tribal bollocks and the extremists in Iraq. Just like the mullahs control Iran. Yes I hate their repression too but the shah was also a twat but a friendlier twat to us.

We had no plan when we destroyed the Iraq society. We disbanded everything that makes a functioning government including the army. Half of ISIS started with the unemployed Iraqi army.

The only building not attacked during the gulf war was the oil ministry. What a surprise.

If we’d had a plan then the country wouldn’t have collapsed and it would not have fed the extremists.

Theses were once great civilisations and oil brought them crashing into the twentieth century.

Think about it, if we had turned medieval,Britain into an industrial country in a few decades the country would still be full of extremist catholic’s and Protestants believing god was in the clouds and everyone ignoring their religion should burnt at the stake.

you keep saying we destyed Iraq like it was only the U.K. mate do you really think we would be burning at the stake ? We are centuries ahead in our way of life thinking beliefs and tolerance but no shock that you think we could be just as bad true to form ffs "

Read the post properly I’m trying to compare their experience with how we would have handled it all.

So we were standing alongside bush bombing the shot out of a country on the basis they had weapons of mass destruction which we had no evidence for and you think we are are innocent .

We’re you asleep while those tanks went into Iraq?

Those countries are that way because we were part of their destruction so yes we aren’t the only ones to blame but we are equally to blame.

Blair wax a bastard crawling up Bushes backside in reverence to being a good boy and trying to appear strong.. To be really strong he should have said no there are no weapons and until there are we want no part of it.

He was too weak.

And the government is already giving itself some of these draconian powers. Priti Patel can now strip anyone of British citizenship with no warning, no comeback. She doesn't even have to tell you. Just take your citizenship, even if you have no other, turn you into a stateless person, somebody who has nowhere on earth to be allowed to live. Yeah, sure she's only going to use it against brown people, only against enemies of the state, only against people that the tories don't like...

My pronouns are she/her thank you very much.

And no I do not support terrorists in any way. But giving the government the power to expel British citizens without recourse is not a good way to fight terrorism. It is not aimed at terrorists from abroad, it is specifically aimed at UK citizens who the Home Secretary decides she does not like (because removing UK citizenship from persons who are not UK citizens is not exactly a thing is it?). History shows us that every single time any government gives itself extra powers to do things without public overview, those powers will sooner or later be abused to the benefit of the government and the detriment of the citizens.

Yes, I realise that as a trans woman there are many extremist groups that would have unfriendly attitude towards me. However as those groups include both extremist Muslim and extremist Christian organisations, most of the current UK newspaper owners, the upper management of the BBC, a large number of Conservative party members, the current so-called equalities minister Ms Truss, and the vast majority of the cabinet, I have distinct reservations about allowing the government to award itself powers to effectively destroy the lives of any persons that it takes a dislike to without due judicial process.

Adrian, I am far more aware of these things than you ever will be. Yes, Isis etc are appalling. This does not mean that the government should be trusted with unlimited powers to do whatever the hell they like. People wishing to give _any_ government such dangerous extra powers are stupid. Regardless of whether you trust the current government, you are also giving the powers to the next government, and the one after that etc. You have absolutely no idea who will be in government ten years from now, and what misuse they may make of the powers you blithely give away.

And actually, in terms of bad treatment that has historically been meted out to the LGBT communities, in the United Kingdom the Conservative party is pretty well top of the pile. Isis are not the government here and never will be. The Conservatives are. Historically they have persecuted people like me, the current equalities minister has publicly stated that she wishes to roll back freedoms for transgender people. Do I trust the current government with extra power? I don't trust them with the amount of bloody power they already have.

"Getting back to the OP...

Given recent events at Liverpool I was thinking. MI5 claim there are a few thousand people of foreign origin on their terrorist watch list.

To reduce this risk should we be more draconian and just deport anyone who they think is a risk? Though that pushes the problem to someone else. Should we round them up and “intern” them?

Or should we use Mrs Thatcher’s doctrine and just quietly start “taking them out” for the good of the people?

Much as I have no love for any terrorists, I do fear that taking the harder lines that you suggest would be a huge leap towards very bad things. The problem is: what are the criteria for someone to be judged as a risk to be eliminated? Is it to have been found guilty of serious crimes against the state in an open court of law? Is it to be a person that the security services have information against, but for reasons of "national interest" could not be prosecuted in open court? Is it sufficient to just be the wrong colour and religion? Can you end up being "taken out" just because you had an argument about the condition of your dividing fence with the next-door-neighbour who unbeknown to you works for MI5? Could it be that power would end up directly in the hands of government ministers, with no public oversight, giving them absolute authority to do exactly what they like to whomever they want?

The deciding of what is "for the good of the people" is a very dangerous power to remove from public oversight, as that is exactly how dictatorships do arise. "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?".

Well that’s two of you who’ve picked up on the “what’s good for the people” . Thank you . That’s where I believe this style of government is taking us.

I’m not advocating any of the choices I was trying to gauge where people are sitting on this in our little circle on fab.

We have created a global terrorist monster with our military interference in the Middle East and now we have questions that we can’t answer.

Are we learning ?? I don’t think so .

We cut aid but buy more guns.

Instead of exporting oil they they are now exporting their daily nightmare to us.

Where’s the plan ??jackal mate your talking like it was a bed of roses there before the U.K. ever set foot there it’s a fucking basket case always as been always will there centuries behind the west it’s best left alone

Exactly, we should never have gone there. Every overseas military intervention we do, just makes things worse. But like it or not, we've already had our armies fucking over these countries (thank you to Mr Blair and most every PM after, and probably a few before as well), and now our government has absolutely no idea how to fix things.

And no, I don't claim to know what to do either, we just shouldn't have gone there in the first place."

According to ISIS own magazine

If we stopped military operations over there, they would still have an axe to grind.

While this ordering alone spells out what ISIS considers the most significant reasons for its actions, the group insists it is “important to understand” that “foreign policies” occupy only a secondary position. “The fact is, even if you were to stop bombing us, imprisoning us, torturing us, vilifying us, and usurping our lands, we would continue to hate you because our primary reason for hating you will not cease to exist until you embrace Islam,” the article says.

"Getting back to the OP...

Given recent events at Liverpool I was thinking. MI5 claim there are a few thousand people of foreign origin on their terrorist watch list.

To reduce this risk should we be more draconian and just deport anyone who they think is a risk? Though that pushes the problem to someone else. Should we round them up and “intern” them?

Or should we use Mrs Thatcher’s doctrine and just quietly start “taking them out” for the good of the people?

Much as I have no love for any terrorists, I do fear that taking the harder lines that you suggest would be a huge leap towards very bad things. The problem is: what are the criteria for someone to be judged as a risk to be eliminated? Is it to have been found guilty of serious crimes against the state in an open court of law? Is it to be a person that the security services have information against, but for reasons of "national interest" could not be prosecuted in open court? Is it sufficient to just be the wrong colour and religion? Can you end up being "taken out" just because you had an argument about the condition of your dividing fence with the next-door-neighbour who unbeknown to you works for MI5? Could it be that power would end up directly in the hands of government ministers, with no public oversight, giving them absolute authority to do exactly what they like to whomever they want?

Quite a chilling statement though sadly I suspect it's accurate. No wonder true peace loving Muslims distance themselves from Isis
