This is Rebwar Ahmed, an Iraqui people smuggler.
He has just received a 31 month sentence at Canterbury Crown Court.
Hapless Priti Patel was gleeful at the severity of his sentence: Mr Ahmed was gleeful too.
He knows he will be out in a year and back in business.
Had he been trafficking in cannabis rather than the lives of people he would have gone down for several years.
One wonders whether Felicity Buchan thinks this sentence fits the crime.
Don't hold your breath.
Felicity is on a mission to become a junior minister and so won't be 'calling out' Patel....what a mad world.
Felicity has no intention of prejudicing her mission to get a safer seat or promotion. She's a canny Scot
ReplyDelete31 months is a joke. A huge joke.
ReplyDeleteWhat is it with these Home Office people and Home Office Ministers? DO they understand what serious human crime is? Something called people smuggling????
Why is our Kensington MP not grabbing some easy headlines and calling out the Home Office?
Because she is conflicted by personal ambition

ReplyDeleteLast year 25,000 economic migrants arrived by small boat from France. If 30 drown on the way it is nothing. 0.01 percent.
Lets get perspective
