Re: What's our MP up to?
I am heartily sick of reading stuff about these people who leech of the state....and sick of reading that our lily livered politicians do nothing concrete about it.
Would France put up with his antics? Would they keep him in prison at vast costs to the tax payer.....and keep his brood sat about claiming money from the communal pot(which as Jaysay observes, they have contributed nothing)? I think the answer to both of those questions would be a big fat NO.

Re: What's our MP up to?
JCB is right of course but Russia, although a signatory, has objected to many of the European Courts rulings which said Russia was in breach and I believe they got away with it. The Russian Courts said something like Russia was protected from European Court decisions which affected Russian security or sovereignty.
If the Russians have ruled that and got away with it why can't we?
Just a point- the European Court has said if it has confirmation that evidence obtained by torture will not be used in his trial there is no reason why he can't be extradited to Jordan-so go for it, Theresa !

Re: What's our MP up to?
Britain has lost three out of four cases taken to the European Court of Human Rights, new figures have shown.
'...today’s report concluded that “few courts have exploited” the ambiguity that such laws have created, than the Strasbourg-based court.'

Champagne socialist were invented in the 80s with the likes of Derek Hatton swanning around Liverpool in taxies giving out redundancy notices out to council staff, as pointed out by Kinnockeo at a Labour Party Conference, and its grown steadily since then

Re: What's our MP up to?
Hey, Graham Jones spotted on TV today. Going on about metal theft. This is what he looks like if you haven't seen him before.
BBC News - London 2012: Metal theft could disrupt Olympic travel according to MPs
Apparently metal theft is at it's highest levels since Gordon Brown sold off the gold reserves in the 1990s (according to the Daily Mail).
