Fed Up?

David Cameron is 'fed up'. Remember this supposedly is the Prime Minister (The First Lord of the Treasury) of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland who admits he's "completely fed up":
Prime Minister David Cameron says he is "completely fed up" about the release on bail of Abu Qatada after the Muslim cleric won his deportation appeal.
Abu Qatada was earlier freed from prison after a UK court ruled he might not get a fair trial if deported to Jordan to face bomb plot charges.
He goes on to say:
Mr Cameron said ministers had "moved heaven and earth" to try to deport him and would continue to do so.
This is a lie. 'Moving heaven and earth' means removing ourselves from the foreign laws that bind us in order to facilitate Abu Qatada's deportation. He has the power to rectify this situation. Cameron has failed to do that. He's admitting that it is better to be powerless than executing the power which his office allows via an election.

Cameron is fed up because his impotency is self inflicted, I'm fed up because our own impotency is not.

  1. @James Higham Sadly our politicians don't do simple, largely because there's too much ideology in politics and not enough common sense...
