    When there is only one answer to it all
    Do you love me, really love me as I love you
    It's the answer to everything if you do

    Don't give me a million excuses
    When I am waiting with my arms open wide
    Do you love me, really love me as I love you
    It's the answer to everything if you do

    If there is someone else, some other place who holds your heart
    Tell me now, truthfully, before we start

    Don't act like you misunderstand me
    When there is simply no mystery to it all
    Do you love me, really love me as I love you
    It's the answer to everything if you do

    Thought not.

    Sentences can increase if you are dealing drugs or supplying them - even if it's just to friends with no money changing hands.

    Agree about Harris, he should have been deported. Johnson wasn't convicted of anything. And I believe this law only covers serious crimes, Johnson wasn't a dealer (according to his version of events iirc).

    Are you seriously suggesting we need to keep them here, and out on the streets (until they commit another crime, for which they will cost the taxpayer untold amounts of money) for some insane reason you may or may not wish to share?

    Racism is “the will of the people”. You get what you vote for, sheeple.
    The Home Office said those detained included people convicted of manslaughter and rape, and all of them had their cases "fully reviewed" to ensure there were no legal barriers to their removal.

    It said Mr Crawford was convicted 10 times for a total of 22 offences, including the burglary.
