So there is this Australian with an English mother who is locked up at Gantanemo Bay having been lifted fighting for the Taliban. He has suddenly decided he wants to hold a British Passport because he believes that he has a better chance of release if the British Government are fighting for him.
OK I can accept that there are some of the detainees there that maybe shouldn't be, but if he falls into this category then the Australian Government would be puilling out all the stops for him wouldn't they?
Sorry this guy made his bed and he should be made to lie on it. If he is not a terrorist then let the Australian Government fight for him and re-patriate him to their country, let's not waste my taxes debating whether he is a British Citizen or not when we are deporting scores of good professional people such as doctors and dentists - of whom there is not even a hint of being involved with terrorism - just because their visas have run out.
