Record number of illegal immigrants win right to stay in UK
Telegraph.co.uk ^ | 29 Jan 2011 | David Barrett, Home Affairs Correspondent

In the first nine months of last year more than 300 immigrants defeated Home Office attempts to deport them. The full-year total is expected to top 400.

Among those allowed to stay were killers, rapists and multiple offenders, along with a woman whose appeal was backed by an immigration judge even though he accused her of "manufacturing" evidence.

Critics claimed that as a result of the court rulings, the Home Office was reducing its efforts to deport migrants due to the strong likelihood that it would face successful legal challenges on human rights grounds.

In January The Sunday Telegraph revealed how Rocky Gurung, an immigrant from Nepal who was convicted of killing an innocent man by throwing him into the River Thames, was allowed to stay in Britain because it would have breached his human rights to separate him from his parents, who live in the UK.

In the same month a judge halted the deportation of 29-year-old Brenda Namiggade, a failed asylum seeker, after she had already been put aboard an aeroplane at Heathrow. She claims she would be persecuted in her homeland, Uganda, because she is a lesbian, but a judge at an earlier court hearing found no evidence that she is homosexual.

I thought we had problems but give me a break..Rocky Gurung, an immigrant from Nepal who was convicted of killing an innocent man by throwing him into the River Thames, was allowed to stay in Britain because it would have breached his human rights to separate him from his parents, who live in the UK. Other criminals who won the right to stay last year after making human rights arguments included:

* A Turkish man, aged 38, who was convicted of rape and jailed for seven years in 2004, but successfully argued that he would be in danger from the anti-terror police and intelligence agencies if he was sent home.

* A 28-year-old Congolese man who was handed four years' imprisonment for causing grievous bodily harm with intent – by battering a man with a metal pole – but won his appeal against deportation because he had an infant son.

They will get to spend the rest of their lives in free public housing and get benefits checks.

10 Downing thinks as little of British girls SOLD
as sex slaves at Gatwick, as does the US Congress which
encourages raping and murder of little children
from their IGNORING criminal illegal aliens.

Just another piece of irrefutable evidence of the demise of the British. This is the what happens when a nation embraces socialism for 60 years and by doing so, generates a welfare state that cannot even deport hard-core criminals anymore. How any sane person remains a resident of the U>k> is beyond me. Family/business ties won't help you much when the U.K. economy totally crashes and the country is overrun with hostile Muslim immigrants demanding their 'right' to government-subsidized freebies that won't be possible due to the lack of taxpayers to support the nanny state. As Margaret Thatcher once stated: "The trouble with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money". The great lady was both astute and correct.

This is not so much a welfare state problem as it is a PC-driven judicial problem. All those ‘60s hippies now donning their quaint little white wigs. And, as we all know, it’s not limited to the UK, either. These ‘human rights’ judicial terrorists are plentiful in any Western country.

God help us all! (Or, if He’s busy with other matters at the moment, a good length of rope and a tree would do just fine.)

LOL. I was wondering what the hundred bucks were for until I noted that the "$" key is next to the "%" key...
