Me? I can't but help thinking that the focus on deporting him is a little perverse; what angers me about the whole case is that for painfully ending the life of a twelve year old whilst banned from driving, without insurance or a licence, a life that would hopefully had had several more decades sadly cut short, this equated to 4 months in jail:
Lifetime of Amy Houston= 4 months locked in here:
One long playstation/hooker/drug holiday at her majesty's pleasure.
If that doesn't anger you- that you can be put away longer for smoking in a pub than for running someone over- more than whether we should send him back or whether we need a piece of legislation from Brussels you really need your head examined.
Course, the prescription in either case is the same; we need to democratise the judiciary and elect our officials in all fields we consent to be governed by - it is a lack of this assent to be governed that is causing this disenfranchisement and sadly there are few people who are successfully advocating this.
Until this changes, that the judiciary's minds are concentrated on the justice we want as a people, everything else is just window dressing and will change little.
Judicial activism needs to be destroyed.
