#1 Oh, f-in great. Some turbans nick a plane, fly it to Stansted (a dumb move if ever there was one), get wined and dined for three years at my expense and then get leave to stay because of that PoS Human f-in Rights law!

Not happy about this. Not f-in happy at all! (can you tell?)

#2 Good question. If they failed the asylum test, are they still hijackers? Or just failed asylum seekers?
WTF was it that they were fleeing that they felt they had to threaten to: "kill passengers and crew" to gain asylum?
The threat of death by Taliban upon return to Afghanistan can be seen as a result of fleeing the Taliban, or simply fleeing.
Welcome to the bizarr-o world that is the Beeb--causation is simply suspended; all is as it is, forever henceafter.
"They're here, now we have to deal with them."
"How did they get here, and why?"
"Oh, that's largely irrelevant."

#3 I don't understand why we stilll have large numbers of Iraqis in the UK either, Tony. At the very least the more recent arrivals should be returned to help build a brighter future for their mother country. Methinks our benefits system is way too generous.
