A leader of the terrorist group suspected of being behind the Tunisian beach massacre is living in benefits in Britain. Hani al-Sibai, an al-Qaeda cleric suspected of radicalising "Jihadi John", lives in a £1 million house leafy street in fashionable west London.

He is said to be one of the "key influencers" of the Islamic fanatics believed to have recruited and trained gunman Seifeddine Rezgui.

Egyptian-born al-Sibai, 54, reportedly lives on £50,000 a year in handouts, disability living allowance, with his wife and five children.

Asked how he could justify taking so much in benefits, al-Sibai, who is under investigation suspected of benefit fraud, told the Daily Mail: "Ask David Cameron, don't ask me."

Keith Vaz, chairman of the home affairs select committee, said he was writing to Home Secretary Theresa May to demand an explanation as to why al-Sibai is still in the country.

"It is extraordinary that successive governments have been trying but failing to remove someone who has these worrying links," he said.

"The way he has foiled attempts to remove him are a cause for enormous concern."

Tory MP Peter Bone added: "This is the sort of thing that drives my constituents mad. I expect the Home Secretary to deal with this urgently. There is a very strong case for him to be deported. He needs to be dealt with."

They ought to publish his address and let the problem take care of itself.

Couldthe government up his allowance from Her Majesty’s Government by the price of two bullets, lovingly administered to his head by an MI5 agent?

Sounds like the most expedient form of deportation available.

He’s not nearly disabled enough. I suggest some relative of one of the victims break every single bone in his body, slowly, and over the course of several days.

I’d like to see his head on a beach in Tunisia, his balls in a pig sty, and the rest of him wrapped in bacon.

Hey, vultures gotta eat.
