BBCPolitics Time to overhaul this Diplomatic Immunity for certain offences, just say she went on and did the same thing a couple of other times with the same tragic outcome, the answer would be the same, I have immunity, it has to stop now.

Ban all the American military personnel from driving in the UK . Make the fuckers catch a bus since it appears that they are incapable of driving on the correct side of the road.

Time for UK to seriously reconsider if they want to continue trading with a country flouting UK laws. Hit them with punitive tariffs and impose sanctions.

What a shame her boss has put himself and the country firmly in Trump's pocket

Disgraceful from the US government. Mike Pompeo is a scoundrel just like his Trump

Even if this woman didn't have immunity. The yanks only do what they want to do. There is no special relationship, never has been.

Ignore any American request for extradition in future.. being that way inclined I'd detain any American travelling until the US co-operation was forthcoming...

BBCPolitics Americans have a track record for not complying with extradition when it's American citizens requiring extradition.

BBCPolitics Message to all UK Governments. Don’t you delusional fools dare bang on about special relationships

BBCPolitics Special relationship obviously doesn't extend to Justice🤬🤬

Suspect = Ann Sacoolas. I feel like we should start giving her name a bit more. Make the woman famous.

Shut the base ( RAF Croughton) and send all the US personal back to the states

In the ‘special relationship’ Boris Johnson’s Britain is the catamite.

We should also be asking for the US to paint arrows on the roads around their bases indicating what side of the road to drive on, to prevent more accidents and deaths

BBCPolitics No Problem Mr Trump ,were keep Julian Assange also 😊🖕

I think we need to boycott the US if possible. Hit them financially

weak as dishwater-trumps poodles the whole sorry lot of them-there isn't a man within the cabinet-weaklings led by a coward who hasn't stopped running since the election-says more about the voter-wanting this ersatz of a man to be PM. shame on us all.

Bet they get Assange delivered in a bow.

BBCPolitics That'll sort it then. She'll be on a flight in the morning

BBCPolitics The Special Relationship

andrealeadsom is right. Two countries operating in an open and transparent way is key to good relationships.If the US actively seeks to undermine the British legal system, we have a problem. It also sets a precedent for other countries to follow in future.

I find it interesting that the UK media is keeping this story alive. The US media covered it for about 24 hours and moved on. Why such a short time? The kid is dead & we all know the woman is not going back to the UK. They decided, rightfully so, to let the story & boy die.

Talk is cheap, Andrea.

What do people expect the British government to do? Send in the SAS? Shut down all US bases? Exhume the bodies in Madingley? It was a tragic accident, it has happened before, and will happen again.

She should come back by choice. karma has a way

She should return to UK so she can put her head in the lion’s mouth and see what happens.

We’re so sorry. We’re trying to oust him.

She has escaped justice by using diplomatic immunity.... Not the first time it's been done... Won't be the last

The USA has made its decision This woman won't becoming back to the UK. Today the UK must also make a decision and announce there Will be No extradition from the UK to the USA under any circumstances from this day forward, including Julian Assange. 😊

Can Ms Sacoolas be tried in absentia in a Crown Court and, if found guilty, be a convicted criminal in the UK?

Maybe her government cronies shouldn't have extended the principal of diplomatic immunity to an intelligence operatives wife whose husband didn't feature on any diplomatic list then!

Fine. Halt extradition of Assange then. Let's see how they like that.

End of a special relationship, if there was one.

International Arrest Warrant?

American visitor (arguably not used to UK roads, ), a defence contractor, previous good character , did not 'hit & run' , called emergency services , no drink/drugs involved would not be facing any prison time and that's even IF she was found guilty. Dunns lawyer is a scammer.

I cant think of Andrea Leadsome, without thinking of her description by thequentinletts in thetimes ! Just priceless .

Remove diplomatic privileges for all non essential American people today. No messing.

Let’s cancel extradition treaties with the US. What’s the point if it only works one way.

If she was innocent she would no doubt but she knows she is responsible for the lad's death.

Ms. Sacoolas will NOT be coming back to face 14 years imprisonment for a 'crime' that ISN'T a crime in the US. There was no intent & she was not driving under the influence. It was an accident. In the US, we don't jail people for simple accidents. Accept that & move on.

Disgusting behaviour by the USA, until she faces justice the UK should ban entry on family members of US diplomats in the UK. Clearly they are a danger if they are not subject to consequences for their actions.

Yeah. We know the answer. You want Ann Sacoolas? Sell us the NHS

US refusal to extradite Harry Dunn hit-and-run suspect is 'denial of justice', blasts governmentTHE US’ refusal to extradite a suspect charged over the death of 19-year-old Harry Dunn is a “denial of justice”, the government blasted today. Anne Sacoolas, 43, was allegedly dr… The government are just virtue signalling - they know annesacoolas had diplomatic immunity when she was here. How would the rest of the US diplomatic corps react if a family member of one of their members was thrown to the wolves. Boris Johnson should not use this case to undermine Donald Trump! Some of the blame for this unfortunate event, it surely falls back on the intransigence of the Dunn family, and allowing advocates on board with a different agenda to make Political capital in a leftist manner!!
