not posh I'm a left wing Mancunian from a poor background that got lucky

I bet you didn’t do a law degree...

nope, mathematics

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

nope, mathematics

It was an ‘in’ joke. Oxford doesn’t do law degrees. The legal undergraduate course is anachronistically and somewhat pompously called ‘jurisprudence’.

I’ve got plenty of my own that will knock that into a cocked hat!

Oxford’s an absolute dump.

I'm sure you have, not that you are the type to blow your own trumpet of course ;-)

It's not all luck somewhere along the line you have to put some graft in.

Are the lectures still given in Latin?

Shamima Begum is not a Bangladeshi citizen and there is "no question" of her being allowed into the country, Bangladesh's ministry of foreign affairs has said.

It will……

You are ascribing a level of inside knowledge to me that I do not possess!

You are not worthy. Perhaps @BerkshireBlue could confirm.

I think Alan is coming across as someone who would like to see her get a fair trial , as is the right of any citizen of a democratic country.
She was a child when she left, she was above the age where she is responsible for her criminal actions , so that has to be considered but she was also groomed by someone older than her.
If she is found guilty then she will rightly go to prison and once she has served her sentence be released into the community Which is what happens in a fair and just society.
Or would you rather we lived in a country that has no justice and sort her and anyone else
out with a bullet to the back of her head without a trial?

Wow, talk about overreaction. No, of course I wouldn't advocate a bullet to the back of the head, and I'm frankly a bit offended you would suggest I do. What on earth gave you the impression I'd think that?
Alan's points were fair, and I accepted them as part of a balanced discussion, and we have made our peace.
He has his views and so do I.
Like I said, if you are prepared to pay for the repatriation of a known terrorist sympathiser and then pay for her incarceration then you obviously have more money than me.
I'd prefer not to go through an unnecessary charade and save us a few quid.
