RECENTLY in the news was the extradition to the US of Eileen Clark and Chris Tappin to face criminal charges.

I have no comment as to the gravity of what they are charged with: my concern is will the hook-handed cleric Abdul Hamza, on his release from a British prison, be so readily extradited to the US to face terrorist charges?

Will our Government have the courage of its convictions to send Hamza to America or will it pussyfoot around as it has done with the other undesirables who should be deported to Jordan?

Never mind their human rights according to the EU. The British taxpayer has had to keep them and their large families while they advocate hate toward us, not to mention the cost of protection and so on.

The British taxpayer has had enough of paying for them while having to tighten our belts and as the old and disabled have to suffer cuts in their benefits.
