Re: Southport attack and riots
Interesting. This guy jailed after putting on Tik Tok that he was running for his life from right wing rioters last Wednesday. Apparently he wasn’t happy that sh.t wasn’t kicking off so he decided to make it happen. https://www.lbc.co.uk/news/tiktoker-jai ... ri-stoica/

I'm guessing he can fall back on British citizenship, but it would be somewhat hilarious if he ended up stateless and in the same boat as Begum.jimbob wrote: ↑Mon Aug 12, 2024 5:42 pmhttps://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/art ... dApp_Other

Re: Southport attack and riots
He’s probably still entitled to Irish citizenship, but not having a valid passport might f.ck things up for him. Be a real shame if he was found to have travelled illegally.FlammableFlower wrote: ↑Mon Aug 12, 2024 7:28 pmI'm guessing he can fall back on British citizenship, but it would be somewhat hilarious if he ended up stateless and in the same boat as Begum.jimbob wrote: ↑Mon Aug 12, 2024 5:42 pmhttps://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/art ... dApp_Other

He was also told to pay £500 to the bus driver, £200 to the police officer he racially abused and £200 to a staff member at Ladbrokes.
Mongan bowed his head as the sentence was read out in court and told the judge afterwards: "They won't see a pound of it from me."

Re: Southport attack and riots
Plymouth rioter mentioned in his police interview concerns "about the better use of taxpayers' money and why people were having to pay to keep these people in this country after committing such heinous crimes."
Judge has his own thoughts about the rioter's own "cost to the taxpayer" Apologies, it's a Retch newspaper link:

Re: Southport attack and riots
I wonder what that works out to in monetary terms? Someone somewhere must be able to do a rough calculation (with big error bars).

I have 2 sources of £/prisoner/yr:
* 2001 Home Office saying ~£35k
* 2023 Statista report saying ~£51k, but that in 2015/16 it was ~£35k,
... so it's hard to tell.
If we take 30yrs at an average of £35k it's over £1m

Re: Southport attack and riots
He won't have spent 30 years in prison. The judge said many of the sentences were concurrent, and it's unlikely he will have done full time for all of them anyway.Gfamily wrote: ↑Wed Aug 14, 2024 2:48 pmIt's hard to get figuresFlammableFlower wrote: ↑Wed Aug 14, 2024 1:53 pmI wonder what that works out to in monetary terms?

I'm not really a huge fan of making these sorts of calculations but well, hypocrisy.

Re: Southport attack and riots
I don't see what the issue is. Returning those with no right to be here, whether through visas or legit asylum claims, is a good thing isn't it?discovolante wrote: ↑Wed Aug 21, 2024 12:18 pmHm the government isn't really doing much to change the narrative, is it: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c5y87yp75ego
That and a more humane asylum policy (speed it up, better routes to claim etc.) are not mutually exclusive.

Re: Southport attack and riots
It depends on whether or not you consider existing laws to be fair. For example, someone might be here illegally for reasons that are really little other than bureaucratic.Tristan wrote: ↑Wed Aug 21, 2024 4:34 pmI don't see what the issue is.

I also posted the link in this thread because the messaging is really not substantially different to the previous government; the new government's main criticism of Tory handling of immigration is that it wasn't efficient enough. It seems unlikely to me that that's going to do much to change the attitudes that led to the riots this month.
