Many immigrants who take British citizenship have their original citizenship revoked when the country of origin does not accept duel citizenship. It is generally not irreversible if that person returns to the country of origin. However he would have to return at first to reclaim his citizenship, and understandably the Egyptians would make it difficult for him because they probably wouldn't want him...let's face it who would? The issue is nowhere near as legally simplistic as suggested in that post. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/ukne...tizenship.html The Egyptians played their cards very cleverly. |

There's no opportunity for the accused to confront their accuser or the evidence in the UK's extradition proceedings. This is a major loss for the UK's sovereignty. |

Re: In To-day's Newspapers
I often wondered where the smirk on his face originated. In essence then he is in a legal limbo. we cannot deport him because no one wants him. We cannot cancel his British Citizenship, unlike the Americans who can cancel an immigrants if he or she gets into serious trouble.Same in Australia too. The Government could put him out to tender but i doubt even the Saudis would welcome him and the Iranians certainly wouldn't considering he is Sunni.They are going to have to have to free him him in the end.Habeus Corpus and all that.
Then there would be the security issues around keeping him alive because the EDL and any other right wing nutter would consider him fair game. Catch 22 mate. |

Re: In To-day's Newspapers
Article in I (20p newspaper) says that Jamie Oliver is having 30,000 napkins stolen from his restaurants each month. I do not condone stealing no matter how petty but he must be doing extremely well to have that many customers who take their napkins away. Probably a misprint, yesterday they only printed half the crossword clues.

Dread - x Since the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 became law, the maximum sentence for treason in the UK has been life imprisonment. And I'm pretty sure that includes Arson of HM Dockyards in case anyone was going to ask <bg>. AndyD 8-)₹ |
