If The 'Mail' Can Trace The Mutt, Why Can't The Met Police? ...

The 'Mail' does some detective work:

The Cane Corso that savaged a Jack Russell belonging to the Queen's son guards a £30 million mansion owned by the glamorous ex-wife of a controversial Chinese mining tycoon, the Daily Mail can reveal. Maud, a two-year-old terrier owned by Tom Parker Bowles, was left fighting for life after the 10-stone mastiff tore into her on Kensington High Street last Thursday. 

...a Daily Mail investigation has traced the brute to a luxury mansion on one of Britain's most expensive streets - where Chinese businesswoman Maria Leung keeps two Cane Corsos as protection animals.

Strange that the Met Police couldn't track down a dangerous dog right under their noses, isn't it? Especially since if the mutts are registerd guard dogs, these are covered by strict regulations which have clearly been broken here, 

Local walkers say the hound is well-known in the area as guard dogs kept within the property's walled garden. The handler who was seen with the animal during the mauling was again observed taking the Corso out this week, often accompanied by another member of staff.

And yet they are clearly unable to control the four legged buglar deterrants. Shouldn't police be concerned? 

It's not helpful that the victim is such a limp rag, spouting dog nonsense usually spouted by the enthusiasts for these violent breeds, despite his ordeal and the almost-loss of his pet: 

Parker Bowles said he was 'a firm believer that there's no such thing as a bad dog, rather a bad owner' and did not want the dog responsible to be put down 

But he called for restrictions on Cane Corso-style dogs, saying: 'What I do want, though, is these big, powerful and often beautiful dogs to be muzzled when out in public. Is that too much to ask?''I'm certainly not a fan of knee-jerk legislation, of banning certain breeds, or having them destroyed. I'd much rather put the responsibility on the owner. 

'If you cannot control your dogs, or train, walk and look after them properly, then you have no right to own a dog. It's as simple as that.'

Well, Tom, now you know the mutt is owned by a citizen of a country that's an enemy of the UK, instead of the usual brain-dead chav,  perhaps you'll show a bit more backbone. 

Cane Corsos have increasingly become known as 'status dogs' since it was made illegal to own the XL Bully breed in 2023 without an exemption certificate.

As was predicted here. 

In September, Conservative MP Gregory Stafford asked whether the breed should be prohibited under the Dangerous Dogs Act, but the Government said it had no plans to do so.

No, it's far too busy regulating those far more dangerous things than 7 stone killer dogs - wetwipes and milkshakes. 

Probably Right, So How About Locking Up Mental Patients Instead?

 

A member of train staff who intervened to protect passengers as the service approached Huntingdon in Cambridgeshire remained critically ill in hospital but his condition was now stable, Heidi Alexander said. She said there was no evidence of a terrorist motivation, adding that she could not be drawn on the possible mental health of the 32-year-old suspect after witnesses to his arrest recounted him talking about the devil. One witness said the suspect had asked the police to kill him. Alexander said there would be visible patrols of British Transport Police officers at stations for the next few days to reassure passengers, but rejected the idea of security scanners or arches.

For once, a Minister isn’t taking a knee-jerk approach, because it’s clearly a non-starter. So much so even a Labour dimwit can see it.

“We have thousands of railway stations across the UK, and those stations have multiple entrances, multiple platforms. What we can’t do is make life impossible for everyone, but we do need to take sensible and proportionate steps to make the public transport network safe.”

So how about making life - free and part of society - impossible for the perpetrators of such rampages, who appear to be overwhelmingly black and often have had several run ins with the authorities before they launch their final attack? No? Didn’t think so!

It’s OK, Folks, Panic Over, Right?

 It wasn’t terrorism after all, just another mentally ill black guy deciding to go on a rampage, almost certainly known to the authorities like Valdosta Calocane and left to roam the streets because of his ‘uman rites (none of whom will face any consequences for their failure, naturally!).

What are you worried about? It’s not like there aren’t more of them in the UK than terrorists, eh? 

Props to the ‘Mail’ for confirming the colour of one of the victims blood, stonking journalism there, chaps! 

 Whew! What a relief! No Vulcans here! 

Update: 

And now we know, it is - once again-  a case where all the fulsome praise for the emergency services turns to ash once it becomes obvious that - once again - they failed to secure this stabby lunatic before the train rampage. Oh and they Tasered a completely innocent bystander. Makes a nice change from fatally shooting one, I suppose.

The Same Old Familiar Story...

A knife-obsessed teenager who stabbed another boy to death was unmasked yesterday after a judge locked him up for at least 16 years.

And in a revelation that will surprise absolutely no-one.... 

Mohammed Umar Khan, 15, was named as the killer of Harvey Willgoose, also 15.

'Wow, what a shocker!' said no-one who reads the news... 

Mrs Justice Ellenbogen yesterday lifted a reporting restriction which had prevented the defendant being named. She accepted arguments from the Press that lifting the restrictions would act as a deterrent to potential offenders while increasing public understanding of the scourge of knife crime.

We understand it all too well, Judge, we understand that blustering about strict penalties for knife crime from the Home Sec is always hot air, because in court, when the rubber meets the road, you and your colleagues go softly-softly. 

It can also now be disclosed that Khan, referred to as Umar throughout the trial, was born and raised in Sheffield – hailing from a Pakistani family.

He was in the same year as Harvey, but had only met him the previous September, when he joined All Saints after leaving his previous school because of bullying.

They always have a poor record, these killer kids. Always. And even when the school authorities want to take action, they are often thwarted by others.

He described a difficult home life during his evidence, claiming his mother had mental issues and his father – who was often in Pakistan and absent from the family home – would beat him for minor indiscretions.

Pity he didn't go too far one day, like so many others in these disfunctional families. It would have afforded Harvey the protection so lacking from the State's minions. 

Social services visited the family in December last year after concerns were reported to them that Khan and his siblings were not being fed properly. The referral stated that the children looked skinny and malnourished, did not own pyjamas and had no sheets on their beds. But, after a visit to the family home, social services concluded no further action was required.

They probably concluded that before they ever rang the doorbell... 

In December last year, his mother found an axe in his gym bag and told the school, which called the police. He was then visited by a police officer who warned him about the dangers of carrying weapons. He insisted that the axe was not his.

That's what police do these days - warn. Never act. 

Yes, There Is A Solution – A Cull

In all, there were 31,920 dog attacks on people recorded in England and Wales in 2024 - a 2% increase on 2023, according to Freedom of Information figures obtained from police forces. And this may not even show the full picture, as three police forces did not provide useable data. All this is despite the XL bully ban that came into force in February 2024.

Because the ban should have been a cull of those wretched breeds, but despite the slant of this article, it hasn’t been totally useless:  

Vivien Lees is the anomaly. She works as a plastic surgeon in Manchester and is one of the only people we spoke to who believes the current system is working. Some of her patients are victims of bad dog attacks. Speaking about the XL bully ban back in April, she said: "We're still seeing serious injuries but some of the worst ones have been less common".

And most of the latest victims have been the friends and relatives of the lunatics that want these mutts, so, there’s that! 

The same thing happened, she said, when the original Dangerous Dogs Act (that banned four other dogs) was introduced back in 1991.

But many others we spoke to believe the law itself is flawed - not only the XL bully ban but the original 1991 law too.

Of course they do.  

The former Prime Minister Boris Johnson wrote in a newspaper column, after leaving office, that the original Dangerous Dogs Act had been "rushed through Parliament and has gone down as a model of atrocious legislation". "By trying to outlaw types of dogs, rather than the actions of dog owners and dog breeders, the Act ushered in a nightmare world of pseudo-scientific dog eugenics, where officials would use calipers to measure parts of the dog's anatomy to determine the breed," Johnson argued.

Anything the fat useless blowhard says after leaving office can be ignored. If only we'd ignored him when he was in it. 

Certainly, some of the criticisms of the original law apply equally to the amendment that covers XL bullies - including the point of the view that the most irresponsible owners don't bother to comply with it.

And most useless police farces don’t bother enforcing it or acting on complaints. It's a factor of almost every one of these incidents. 

Thousands of pitbull terriers, banned under the original act, are still in the UK. Even while writing this article, we saw a sizeable XL-type dog being taken on a walk in Leeds city centre, its muzzle pointlessly dangling off its collar despite this being one of the requirements of it being out in public.

And did you alert the police? No? Why not? 

Maybe 'Watchlist' Is The Wrong Term?

A man who brandished a knife outside one of the country's most prestigious prep schools is reportedly on the counter-terror watchlist.

And he was arrested before he could do anything by the people supposedly watching him? Well, no, Reader, he was reported by the public. 

He was arrested shortly after pupils and parents gathered near the gates of the school, which counts Lady Gabriella Windsor as a former student.

At least this time, the police took their concerns seriously: 

The suspect, from High Wycombe, tried to run away after police officers challenged him. Officers threatened him with Tasers and were able to disarm and detain him before armed units were deployed.

Shame, if only they hadn't been so diligent... 

It is not yet being treated as a foiled terror attack, but the suspect is thought to have appeared on a counter-terror watchlist for showing interest in Islamist ideology, according to The Telegraph. The man has also reportedly been convicted of a child sex offence, and it remains unclear if he is on a MI5 watchlist.

It 'remains unclear' just why anyone uses that term without bursting out laughing, since no-one is actively watching these people. 

Why Send Them And Not Use Them?

Armed police scrambled to Beveridge Lane, Bardon Hill, in Leicestershire, on Thursday morning after receiving two separate calls about attacks. The first call came in at 6.30am, reporting a man being savaged by two dogs. When officers arrived no animals were found, but a victim was identified.

How hard did they look? The mutts responsible are pretty distinctive, after all. 

Hours later, three more people were reported bitten at the same spot and firearms officers, backed by a police dog and handler, were sent in and eventually cornered the pair of huge dogs. The Caucasian Shepherds were seized and taken to secure kennels while inquiries continue.

Why not despatch them at the scene? Was it because they weren't as easy a target this time, not being tied to a telegraph pole? 

A teenage girl, 17, and 47-year-old man were arrested on suspicion of being in charge of dangerously out-of-control dogs.

The Leicestershire force said it made a referral to the Independent Office for Police Conduct because of a prior report made about the dogs.

Translation: these mutts were a known nuisance in the area and as usual the police pooh-poohed any report that might have meant they had to seize them, because they are scared of critiscism by the 'aww, doggies!' loons. Or perhaps they had seized them before?

Are there any police farces in the country capable of doing their jobs competently?

What Are We Paying These People For?

Lord Anderson's report described how a Prevent 'intervention provider' met Ali, then a sixth former, only once after his school raised concerns he was being radicalised. Following the meeting at a McDonalds in Croydon in January 2015 the intervention provider described Ali as a 'pleasant and informed young man' in a report. They added that Ali 'does not agree' with extremists including Islamic state and al-Qaeda, and 'has no grievances against the west or other faiths or groups'.

...because it's certainly not 'to keep us all safe from terrorism' is it? 

An unnamed Prevent counter-terrorism case officer – a Scotland Yard civilian police worker - then emailed their colleague: 'He seems to be a great person, are you still all right to do a lesson at his school, do you think it is worth it?'

A 'great person'? That's a value judgement, not one of risk posed by the subject.

Lord Anderson's report went on: 'Ultimately, the intervention provider accepted what they described as a decision taken by others that no further meetings were required.'

‘Not me, guv, big boys did it and ran away!’ 

The 156-page report also said a document describing the intervention provider's contact with Ali was 'overlooked' by the Home Office. It had been sent to civil servants in 2021 but was not provided to a previous review of the case, and has only now come to light. It was disclosed to Lord Anderson only on June 25. 

Where was it? Who failed to provide it? We’ll never find out. 

'I told the Home Office that I considered this a significant matter, and asked that checks be made to ensure that no further sources of relevant evidence had been disregarded,' yesterday's report said. 'The Home Office responded with an assurance that it has conducted a thorough search and that no additional information has been detected.'

And you accepted that assurance? 

'Today's sentence is not the outcome Isaac's family had hoped for - and certainly not the justice they feel he deserved.'

Well, they'll just have to lump it, like everyone else whose loved ones have been slaughtered by mental patients who are being 'cared for in the community'. This case does at least reverse the usual racial element.

In sentencing, Judge Blair said: 'It was a racist attack. Let's make no bones about it, the things you said at the time and afterwards make plain that that was a feature of your behaviour at that moment in time.

'I'm faced with a very stark choice because for the facts that have been described to me you plainly are a danger and this is a case where, as I have already made comment in the submissions of the barristers, requires imprisonment for life.

'I have been persuaded that it would be inappropriate to pass a hybrid order.

'I am going to impose a hospital order under section 37 of the mental health act with restrictions required under 41 of the mental health act.

'You can expect that you will be very much older before any risk will be taken for you beginning to have any access to the public.'

I wouldn't be too sure about that, if I were you... 

I Guess Sanatogen Just Wasn't Cutting It Any More...

The street is mostly elderly people's bungalows for retirees and also contains a middle school.

Well, sounds like the perfect place to send a scofflaw recidivist with 23 previous convictions for 53 offences, who strips naked and sets fire to his home while off his tits on monkey dust, dousn't it?

Sentencing Harrison, Judge Trevor Meegan said: 'There’s around £100,000 worth of damage - that is a loss for the community, a loss of houses for elderly people, which are in need.'

Maybe the local council should have a bit of a think about who they place there in future, then. 

How Many More Must Pay The Price?

A man has been charged with the murder of two pensioners after they were found stabbed to death in the street.

Yes, the perpetrator is exactly who you'd imagine it to be.  

Mouhamadou Fall, 23, has been charged over the deaths of Sidy Fall, 75, and Norman Scott, 68, Greater Manchester Police (GMP) confirmed today. Fall, of Milverton Road, Manchester had previously been detained under the Mental Health Act following the stabbings.

And out police farce?  

Chief Superintendent David Meeney, district commander for the City of Manchester division said: 'This morning, two lives have been lost in our community, and our thoughts go to their families who have lost a loved one today.

'We are treating this as an isolated incident with no threat to the wider public.'

How many 'isolated incidents' do we have to suffer before someone draws some connecting lines on a whiteboard? 

The Wheels On The Bus Go Round And Round...

An elderly driver has avoided jail after killing an 83-year-old woman as she crossed the road.

No, this isn't another story about elderly car drivers - the missing words here are 'in his London bus'. Because if you think this story has the ring of familiarity, Reader, you're not wrong.... 

Partially deaf Ozdemir Zia, 77, hit Edna McLean when she was crossing Vincent Road outside Woolwich Arsenal station in southeast London on September 11, 2021.

Zia, who uses a hearing loop, had been allowed to continue work despite a previous conviction for crashing into another bus and six other incidents of bad driving.

Incredibly, it seems being deaf and having an appalling record behind the wheel is no bar to being a London bus driver! 

The jury was not told about Zia's previous conviction for careless driving in 2018 when he injured passengers by crashing into another bus. He was fired by Stagecoach, one of the operators of Transport for London buses, because of his conviction. But he was back behind the wheel again after he applied for a job with Go Ahead, a different provider.

If this was America, a host of sharp-toothed lawyers would now descend on Go Ahead and strip it bare.  

Why Focus On The Familial?

The thought of mothers being abused or killed by their own children – the people they have carried, cared for and nurtured since birth – is something of an underexamined and almost taboo issue in Britain. There is a slowly growing body of research into why children under 18 use violent behaviour towards their parents. There is an even smaller body of research showing why adults – nearly all of them sons – do the same.

Is it because they can get away with it? Or is it because we take the threat from the mentally ill less seriously even than we do the threat from dangerous dogs? 

“It is still incredibly hidden, very taboo,” said Prof Rachel Condry, who along with Dr Caroline Miles has been researching violence towards parents for 15 years. “When we started, practitioners and police officers knew about the problem and had to deal with it, but it wasn’t something that was named, or really talked about. Over the years it has become more of a familiar, known problem, but so much is still hidden.”

But the 'Guardian's' keeping count: 

The Guardian’s Killed women count project, which documented every woman allegedly killed by a man in 2024, identified at least seven cases of mothers alleged to have been killed by their sons. A new Femicide Census report puts the figure at 173 over the last 15 years. Some of the key drivers are clear. Issues around lack of housing, substance misuse and, most often of all, mental health problems are key factors behind many of the tragic stories of the women killed by their offspring.

I think I can guess which of those is the real driver.  

Prof Amanda Holt, the chair of criminology at the University of Roehampton who completed the first national analysis of parricide (the killing of a parent) in England and Wales, said a failure to consider parents as potential victims was leaving people vulnerable. “There’s so little understanding around violence towards parents it’s harder for practitioners to know what the red flags are,” she said. “They tend to see parents as carers, not as potential victims. I think a lot of services are just thinking, thank God there’s someone for this person.”

'Someone for this person to murder instead of us' might be more accurate.

Another Sacrifice To The NHS...

...and no-one will face a single day of jail time for it:

A schizophrenic man brutally killed a Travelodge receptionist after a string of errors saw him moved into a hotel without medication, a coroner has ruled. Stephen Cole, then 32, savagely attacked Spanish national Marta Elena Vento, 27, who was working at the Travelodge in Christchurch Road, in Bournemouth, with a set of hair clippers on December 9 2020. Cole attacked her during a psychotic episode and struck her with a grooming appliance in a 42 minute assault.

Cole, described as 'completely disengaged' had been released from jail despite the reservations of a prison psychiatrist. He had left prison with just a four week supply of the antipsychotic drug that kept his condition stable. He was later seen by several health care professionals and police officers before the fatal attack.

Today, Dorset coroner Rachael Griffin ruled that Ms Vento was unlawfully killed.

But not, Reader, by those medical staff and police officers who utterly failed in their job. Of course.  

He was later moved into the Travelodge on Christchurch Road, Bournemouth, Dorset, with staff not told about his condition or his violent outbursts. On December 7, a police offender manager for sexual or violent offenders, visited Cole at the Travelodge and described him as 'completely disengaged' and 'almost blank'.

However, he failed to inform Travelodge staff of the danger he posed to them or guests and simply left.

I think he didn't really understand the term 'manager'. 

The coroner said there was a 'systemic failure within PPG care' which created a chain of events which led to her death.

You don't say? 

Benjamin Burrows, the lawyer representing the family, said: 'The clear conclusion is that Marta's death aged just 27 would have been avoided.

'If Practice Plus Group had provided continuity of care to Stephen Cole on his release from HMP Winchester it would have probably meant that he stayed on his medication and he would not have relapsed into psychosis.'

'The same would have happened if Dorset Police had properly assessed and managed Cole's risk.

'Either of those steps would have prevented Cole killing Marta. This is very difficult for the family to come to terms with, but finally gives them the answers they have been waiting for.

And hopefully a good reason to take Practice Plus Group to the cleaners in a civil suit. 

I Think He's Already Established His 'Level Of Dangerousness'...

This is the terrifying moment a record store owner keels over and almost dies in the street after an anaesthetic nurse jabs him with a deadly drug in a 'motiveless' attack. In shocking footage, Gary Lewis is shown sliding off a chair outside his shop, Betterdaze, before being helped into the recovery position by police officers. The video was taken shortly after he was injected with a dose of rocuronium by Darren Harris, 57, who has now been found guilty of attempted murder.

It's a pretty baffling crime, seemingly stemming from nothing. The defence tried a tactic of 'they had a falling out over selling some records' yet could produce no evidence this actually happened.  

Today, Harris's 79-year-old father Kenneth told MailOnline of his shock about his son's bizarre attack, saying: 'Whatever has happened is out of order, it's just not him.' He told of how Harris and his wife were looking forward to their retirement after his son had worked his way up to become an anaesthetic nurse from a hospital porter.

*boggle* 

Harris's stepmother and Kenneth's wife, Brenda Cahill, 79, says her daughter thinks he may have been having a psychotic episode when he carried out the attack.

Ya think!? But this was clearly well planned, not a spur of the moment episode of madness and loss of control.... 

Police bodycam also captures the moment Harris was arrested - and his shocking refusal to tell police what was in the syringe he used to attack Mr Lewis.

He should get longer for that alone. 

Harris, who was today convicted of attempted murder, ambushed his victim on July 2 in Northallerton after prowling outside Mr Lewis's shop. The jury at Leeds Crown Court took less than two hours to find him guilty of attempted murder.

Two hours? The tea and biscuits in the jury room must have been good... 

Sentencing was adjourned to assess Harris's level of 'dangerousness.'

Think that's pretty well established already. 

Pointless If They Can’t Be Traced By Registration Plates

New UK cycling laws being introduced this month introduce further penalties – but downgrade two existing offences. Ten offences to tackle antisocial cycling have been proposed – including offences relating to cycling behaviour in London's Royal Parks.

Only works if they get stopped at the time. If - as usual - they pedal off in the distance, what are you supposed to tell the police to enable them to be traced? 

'It was a fat arrogant man in lycra, officer!' 'OK, madam, and do you know how many of those there are in London?'  

What are the offences that are now deemed 'not as serious'?

However, these laws raise “serious concerns”, as two new offences are, in effect, being ‘downgraded’ – dangerous cycling and failing to stop at a school crossing patrol – which can now be dealt with by taking a 30-minute e-learning course through the National Driver Offender Retraining Scheme (NDORS) for a fee of £100, instead of cyclists’ receiving points on their driving record or a fine.

Well, that's doing a lot for safety... 

Another Pathetically Lenient Sentence & Authority Incompetence …

A mum-of-five whose dogs savaged a pensioner has been jailed after ignoring warnings about the “vicious” animals.

'Savaged' doesn't quite fully sum up the damage done here:

Vic Franklin had to have his arm and leg amputated after being attacked by Chloe Taylor’s two rottweilers in Lewes Close in Bognor.

This is the case reported last year, and it's another one replete with all the usual issues; totally innocent victim, filthy chav owners of the vicious mutts, idiot onlookers weeping because armed police shot the poor doggies... 

Taylor, 27, wept as she was taken down today after being jailed for 27 months and told she will spend at least half in custody.

But she's not the only person who should be in the dock, not by a long chalk:

Judge William Ashworth told Taylor she ignored repeated warnings about the dogs who she knew were getting out of her insecure garden.

"The dogs were left insecure outside in the garden,” he said.

"A garden they had escaped from many times before and a garden you were aware was not secure."

The judge said Taylor had been officially warned about neighbours’ concerns and advised she was in breach of the tenancy agreement by keeping them at the house.

All those warning, and yet, they were never followed up by action. What was the point? 

A series of warnings over the aggression shown by the dogs were issued and ignored by locals, council and police, the judge said. The last warning came two days before Mr Franklin was attacked.

If they had acted on that one, he might still have all four limbs. And in fact, he doesn't owe his survival to the police who finally turned up to end the threat permanently, but to a civilian - his neighbour: 

The rottweilers mauled Mr Franklin for 11 minutes before his neighbour appeared after hearing the dogs barking and shouting. His partner looked out at the horrific scene outside and shouted: "Oh God, there is a man being attacked by a dog."

Mr Jones armed himself with a large spirit level and went out to confront the dogs.

Hard not to agree with this commenter: 

 

'No Consequences' Britain....

A 'veil of secrecy' was placed over the Sara Sharif scandal yesterday after a court banned the naming of a judge who placed the little girl in the custody of her murderous father. A High Court judge ordered that none of the professionals involved in the family court proceedings could be named, including social workers, experts and guardians.

Of course, they look after their own. They always have done...

They also included the family court judge who made the fateful decision to give Urfan Sharif custody before he beat the ten-year-old to death.

It should surprise no-one, of course, but there's room for some appalling chutzpah from our disaster of a prime minister: 

The extraordinary ban sparked a secrecy row yesterday as Keir Starmer said questions must be answered about the appalling case.

Really, Starmer? Now you think questions are warranted? 

The anonymity ruling effectively prevents full public scrutiny of those responsible for the key decisions which culminated in Sara's death on August 8 last year.

Rather like an injunction does. You know what an injunction is, don't you Starmer? 

Not that he's the only failed politician to decide the public have forgotten all about their previous screw-ups. Lady Dogshit decided to open her trap too:

Yesterday, former victims commissioner Dame Vera Baird KC said: 'This has placed a veil of secrecy over this case. I think it's appalling that we cannot know who was responsible for this obviously extremely damaging order which played a key role in the horrible death of this child.

'This is the judiciary protecting the judiciary. How can the public be confident that the family courts can protect future children if the public are denied the knowledge of who is making such decisions... The judiciary needs to be held to account for the decisions they make. This is an awful case, people got it seriously wrong and the public need to know the truth.' She added: 'It is sinister.'

Bit of a stretch to insist the judiciary should be held to account when you've never been, eh, Vera? 

'She always saw the good in everyone....'

Well, that was her fatal mistake. Because some people just don't have any in them. And no-one's sorting out the potential killers from the rest.

Rhiannon Skye Whyte, 27, died in hospital three days after she was knifed at Bescot Stadium railway station in Walsall following a shift on October 20.

Deng Chol Majek, 18, who is believed to be a Sudanese who crossed the Channel in a small boat, has since been charged with her murder.

It is understood a row over a packet of biscuits took place at the hotel just before the attack, The Sun has reported.

Lives are held cheap in some countries, such that a killing over something so trivial is no surprise. And now, if convicted, he gets to stay in the UK with a better lifestyle in prison than he would have free in his own country. 

Majek has been remanded in custody and will next appear at Wolverhampton Crown Court on November 19.

And all it cost was the life of a British mother. 

A Disorder That Seems To Be Pretty Common In The Black Community...

The court was told that the killer had a psychiatric disorder which caused him to suffer a 'pervasive distrust and suspiciousness' which made him preoccupied with grievances and grudges against those he believed had harmed him.

...even the ones who don't commit murder.

Lawyers argued that being deported to Uganda would be a 'traumatic event' that could cause his mental condition to deteriorate and that living in an 'alien world' in Uganda, with no friends and separated from his mother who lives in the UK, would add to his 'suspiciousness'.

Frankly, I'd rather the Ugandans took that risk than the British public!  

The court accepted that there would be a 'serious, rapid and irreversible decline' in his mental health if he were to be deported and that this would be a breach of his article three rights under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) which protects individuals against inhumane and degrading treatment or torture. Christopher John Hanson, the senior immigration judge, said he was 'satisfied' that the necessary treatment for ZM's condition was 'either not available or not accessible' to him in Uganda.

Well, that's not true, not true at all.
