Not the hokey cokey

Look. It's not down to the Human Rights Act, okay? Back in 2003 all those lying, mendacious bastards who are supposed to represent what people want yet do one thing in Brussels and say quite another back home, voting for a law which allowed the free movement of people.

I've written about it before, but just for you here is a snippet from the directive about people from the EU and criminal records:

2. Measures taken on grounds of public policy or public security shall comply with the principle of proportionality and shall be based exclusively on the personal conduct of the individual concerned. Previous criminal convictions shall not in themselves constitute grounds for taking such measures.


Expulsion orders may not be issued by the host Member State as a penalty or legal consequence of a custodial penalty, unless they conform to the requirements of Articles 27, 28, and 29.


That and, of course:
The fundamental and personal right of residence in another Member State is conferred directly on Union citizens by the Treaty and is not dependent upon their
having fulfilled administrative procedures.


Want to be able to expel people from this country? Better vote UKIP, then.

The sooner we are out of the EU the safer we will be.
