Its a rubbish society where the government is either ripping you off, or passing laws to allow private companies to rip you off.

It would cost too much to implement.

Judge says the cops can't have the house. But apparently there is a bill of £500k which someone will have to pay for the trial I think ( not sure there).

Another loser for the GMP. Okay by me as they are a rubbish force.

how was the house funded? If its proceeds of crime then fine.

No objection to recovering costs from any criminal. Not sure why it should only be terrorists though.

You are thinking of NLYUK with the back door open.

I have heard of vans with back door open being planted near oxford street - so some form of entrapment is allowed.

In the USA entrapment is allowed - but I didn't think it was in the UK. Did the cops ask to be recruited?

Is that what Theresa May does on a Friday night?

She won't any more, now she's locked in the boot of Dodgy's chocolate brown Ford Cortina.

Well, I doubt he just went down the local coppers' boozer and asked around to see if anyone was interested.

I want to know why two undercover police officers were trying to join jihadi groups in Afghanistan. I'm starting to think Theresa May has a point.

Munir Farooqi, from Longsight, Manchester, was given four life sentences in 2011 after he tried to recruit two undercover police officers for jihad in Afghanistan.

He tried to recruit them, but did they try to join?
