GeekLawyer’s Blog

Geeklawyer was, predictably, smug at the Court of Appeal’s decision to tell the Government that Tony Bliar’s policy of ejecting People-We-Dont-Like to Tyrannies-We-Now-Like with civil liberties regimes that he hoped to emulate is illegal. Of course the obvious danger to this unwilling tourist was entirely negated: Phoney Tony got a solemn good conduct note, scribbled in prisoners blood, from the regimes concerned:

“Sure Tony, we will treat them fairly, honest  :wink: “

But it gets better: the High Court then kicked Tony in the bollocks while he was still stunned and reeling from the CA’s decision. It turns out that allegedly corrupt payments were made to the Saudi’s and that those in receipt of them coerced TB into dropping corruption investigations on the threat that they wouldn’t buy lots of our jetfighters. Of course that wasn’t really the reason sleazy Tony dropped the investigations. No, honest. It was because the Saudi’s are a key partner in preventing terrorism.

The Court laughed at Philip Sale’s argument that it was simply impractical to stick by the rule of law and high moral standards so we must just do as they wanted. The CA’s retort was “No sale Sales”.

Of course if the oil despots really wanted to stop terrorism they could just stop giving billons of dollars to the terrorist groups they sponsor. But of course, being a genius, only Geeklawyer can comprehend this stunningly sophisticated anti-terror strategy.
