It’s in the definition of felon surely that you’ve been convicted.
He has been.
As have you, of being a troll.
Where’s Yvette Cooper when you need her, to keep convicted criminal misogynist racist fascist sex offenders out of the country?
Too busy arresting cardboard-wielding 83yr old retired Bristol vicars I suppose.
I miss Janey Godley.

These criminals coming to this country, how disgraceful.
How do they get in?
I’d get Farage to deliver the deportation order.
Just as well he is not a foreigner trying to get into the US or deemed to be some sort of illegal in the US. He’d be off to El Salvador.

I was ashamed of Channel 4 News tonight saying protests in Scotland were muted. They clearly are not.
