Islamic Sunday school teacher caught with IS video was granted asylum in UK

It’s really simple. Return her back where she came from. She obviously misses it terribly.

I’m no Islamaphobe and I don’t think Islamic extremism is an existential threat to our country.

That being said, I just don’t understand the logic behind escaping somewhere like Chechnya to a country who grants you asylum, only to then try and incite a ‘holy war’ against the peace which saved you and allowed you a comfortable life in the first place. The answer is of course religious fervour and indoctrination which has no ration or logic much like how the right in America used Christianity to justify the war in Iraq. Fundamentalism always seeks power. 

The unfortunate truth is that because of our own actions destabilising and invading the Middle East, we don’t really have a leg to stand on when it comes to moral superiority or the right to turn refugees away. A terrorist attack here is a drop in the ocean compared to what we did in Afghanistan. It’s hard for us to understand their anger, but imagine someone flattened your hometown with missiles and waved off the collateral damage that killed your friends. You would be angry too no matter the wider political situation. A peaceful country like this will always struggle to see from that lens. That does not make it any easier to implement these people into our society, social cohesion doesn’t care about justice. A difficult problem indeed. 

Centrists got to wake up.

Starmer is a reasonable man and he’s got to deliver on housing, energy and border controls.

Otherwise don’t be in any way shocked when things go a different direction.

The lunatics are running the asylum (policy).

Time to end asylum completely, just have bespoke agreements with certain countries like Ukraine and Hong Kong when it comes up. Don’t empower people traffickers by accepting anyone who gets to the border (and giving them free hotel stays!).
