Are Our Judges Fit For Purpose?

You just couldn't make it up!

[davebro3]

"other fake news" implies that THIS is fake news - is it?

[youngmafbog]

Our judges and law, keep your Ozzy nose out.

It does beggar belief Davebro, country is no longer ours.

[youngmafbog]

No Davebro, he's probably had too many tinnies again.

[davebro3]

So any murderous thug who can convince the docs that he's a bit mental can get a judge to rule it's against his human rights to be sent back to his own country?

As I said - you couldn't make it up.

[davebro3]

I wonder what the Ozzies would do...

[davebro3]

It wasn't "the law" - his lawyers "successfully argued" it would be against his human rights - the judge could equally well have determined that their argument WASN'T successful.

[davebro3]

Exactly - the judge made a judgement (it's what they do). In a case like this the judgement could have gone either way - he was probably worried that if he ruled for deportation there would have been an appeal further up the chain - possibly to the ECHR (& no one wants that do they!).

I suppose the scumbag will spend the rest of his miserable life sucking on the UK benefits system having already enjoyed years of free bed & board.

"he was probably worried that if he ruled for deportation there would have been an appeal further up the chain - possibly to the ECHR "

why would a judge be worried about this?

[davebro3]

Because it drags out the process & makes him look bad if he is subsequently overruled. Easier just to give in....

(the Ozzies wouldn't be cowed by the thought of the ECHR waiting in the wings would they - the sooner we get out of t the better)

[CrapatCryptics2]

Its time they rewrote the human rights laws to state that those infringing others human rights ie by killing them etc should lose that protection.

Usual ordure from the glaikit ozzy. If it was black and white we would not need judges. This is a typical trobiscite deeming that the yuman rites of low life criminal scum out weigh the rights of the rest of us. We need to introduce our own version of the ECHR based on common sense.
