Priti Patel's decision to stand by a planned deportation is a welcome move after years of her predecessors prioritising criminals' human rights over those of their victims, says Allison Pearson

Not that Priti Patel was allowed to expel all of the 50 or so Jamaican-born criminals who were supposed to be on the Home Office flight. Lawyers representing some of the detainees applied for a judicial review and a judge ruled that the deportations should not go ahead if the offenders had been unable to make phone calls from detention centres because of “problems with an O2 phone mast”. A lawyerly loophole if ever I heard one.

Coz you're also a racist

I'm sure there are many Telegraph readers who are celebrating the return to the days of Empire. Including the practice of transporting felons to the colonies

That’s precisely what the government wants you fools! Discoed, disagreement, racial tensions and divert attention to other equally important things.

Disgusting. Priti patel is a psychopath. Anyone who thinks she is on their side is deluded

MartinCollyer ibackPritiPatel

PringleNottm If they commit serious crimes and are not of this country, then they forfeit their right to be here.

Shocking!

On “our side”? If by that you mean parochial, bigoted xenophobes (as I suspect you do) then count me out if your ridiculous sweeping statement

The only side she's ever on is the wrong one.

Does she have a facial defect ? Always seems to have a smirk no matter the situation

Please someone tell her to stop pulling that face, she looks ridiculous, shes not the mona bloody lisa

Smirking sociopathic shopkeeper's daughter.

LeslieH24367191 Definitely. Hope there are more planes leaving soon.

SL_Benton Absolutely patel4witham

The truth is being carefully avoided here yet again. The only reason that Priti Patel is free to say what she honestly thinks about this deportation of Jamaican criminals is because she is not white. No white politician would be supported in the media for taking this same stance.

She is so sexy ...

I love Preti Patel.

Normal people are on patel4witham ‘s side. Decent, tax paying, family-minded people.

👍👈

pixiesheena Priti is the only Tory Mp delivering? Since Boris delivered brexit who feels his tenureship so far is uninspiring!!?

lsrlinda Patel DON'T CARE OR LOVE US..IT'S JUST WE HAPPEN TO !AGREE WITH HER DECISION.

She is dispensable and has been thrown to the wolves. Whatever happens, she’ll still be smirking.

Me too and surely all of us who have born witness to the gradual degradation of our country. We grow enough of our own villains, we do not need everyone else’s

Keep on sending them back

All a big stunt. The plane was empty.

BartsPete What about the south Asian drug dealers on London’s streets? Is Patel going to deport them too? It shouldn’t be one law for Black people and one law for Asians.

2tweetaboutit Currently she is all talk and no action

Agreed. go get madam!

I think you will find she is on her side

If we deporting nice people who did good work and raised money for charity then a lot of people would be rightly concerned. But these are rapists, murderers, violent criminals & drug dealers. What people should be concerned about is that DavidLammy wants to keep them in the UK.

I really don’t see how sending someone back to their place of birth , (Especially as they are not British citizens, ) Infringes on their Human rights .

Who is ‘our side’? So the Tories strategically placed Priti Patel someone from the minority race to carry out a racist job for “your side”? Just like Sajid Javid her predecessor?

Hear hear

Yes but she needs to get on top of these illegal immigrants crossing the channel too.

Priti Patel cares about our country, apparently unlike certain Labour MPs. There could be some doubt sending certain young criminals back but the majority must be deported for causing harm to our people. Imagine what some nations would do to English criminals running amok.

Is she on your side!

Priti Patel, can have my babies. Love her. Sooo much PP4FPM

Only she's not on the side of the law. And why has convicted pedophile Rolf Harris not been deported? But people convicted for dangerous driving are? Now what could be the difference between Rolf Harris and the people deported to Jamaica?

If they're British people brought up in British society and therefore a British problem - why should they be dumped on another country. This idea belongs in the 1800s.

It's because you're racist tho.

I’m on the side of fairness and justice

This Priti Patel?

Priti Patel is not on our side.

well done Pritti these criminals should be deported

brewskicsp But who's on the victim's side?

~ wondering, if she doesn't kind of qualify for deportation. 🤭

DCBMEP Never has a Home Secretary been so tuned into the psyche of the masses than this one .long may she reign !!and we might finally get some law and order back on our streets !

Every government preceding this one in the 21st century pandered to the offended or liberal zeigeist in London who often shouted loudest. Appears this is no longer the case.

Asians are racists against blacks is she going to dep .many criminal and illegal asians now living in UK

Priti is doing a really good job and is showing the men how to do it!

50 out, hundreds arriving by boat, ably assisted by coast so-called 'guards'.

Was she on out side when she was lying about tobacco. Was she on out side when she was trying to get a job with Kissinger Associates? I suggest a visit to Kampala to talk to some relatives as there are no allegations of impropriety there at all. None. And smoking is good for you!

turning out to be a very competent Home Secretary

KulganofCrydee Ahhhh Priti, Sorry what was the problem?

So when in another country and you commit a crime, don't they deport you? So why should we allow foreign criminals to remain in the UK! Your human rights are all gone when you rape, murder, Rob and commit other serious crimes! Deportation is a go!

Didn’t deport Rolf Harris did she. Why is that?

She would be a good PM, she has balls. She is the only Right politician in the Tories.

I_wonder IF she will take the same decision IF It was a member of her close family.

Rightly described as someone who will unplug your life support to charge her phone.

Love her!

So where are the Canadian, New Zealand and Australian criminals being deported back to their homelands? Are they all perfect. Or is this, as it looks, a class and race based policy.

So you too, would: - Have 13 private meetings with government & business interests of a foreign power while 'on holiday' - Behind the back of the PM, Foreign Office & security services - Offer them UK taxpayers' money for favourable coverage - Get caught - Lie about it...

And thats the side of racism Would you deport the Irish terrorists?

at least 12 million immigrants, more likely 20 million. The majority are illegal. How many are criminals? Stop letting people in!

allisonpearson writing absolute bollocks as per usual

The UK Borders Act 2007 was bought in by labour. Legislates automatic deportation of non British citizens if imprisoned for specific offences OR imprisoned for more than one year. patel4witham Conservatives are doing what law abiding citizens want to see. lawful NotRacist

Well there’s a surprise. allisonpearson sides with the minister dealing with what she called counter terrorism offences. Be warned, Patel is not on anyone’s side but her own. And im blocked by Pearson.

Yet England still persists in voting in Conservative governments.

No surprise there

Indeed and she’s definitely not racist eh?

You’re on Priti Patel’s side because the Barclay brothers tell you to be.

Who is “our side”?

Bollocks

Senior Tory politicians have openly admitted to taking class-A drugs. No action has been taken against them. Why? We all know the answer.

Boris Johnson admitted class A drug use and was born abroad. He must be deported too.

Oh Allison, we've talked about this before

Priti Patel is on our side. Wow. In a business of writing complete and utter bollocks, you'd be up there near the top.

Every single one of these criminals are a product of BRITISH society, and it’s lack of ability to integrate immigrants into Britain. Chances are, their parents were brought up here to be exploited as cheap labour, making is hard to do proper parenting.

This is the inhumane, xenophobic and despicable Tory policy of implementing a hostile environment towards migrants in BrexitBritain . If you tolerate this then my children will be next. She is not on my side, I am an immigrant

Johnson and Gove both admit to taking drugs so why aren't they being deported

She's a disgusting human being. She's only on her side.

And STILL no exposè on the Leeds hospital fraud? What's up allisonpearson? It was supposed to be out months ago!

There aren't 'criminal's human rights' there are just 'human rights'. If they don't apply to everyone then they don't apply to anyone.

Was she on our side when she held secret, unauthorised meetings with foreign governments?

I understand people will have differing views on all sorts of subjects. It's beyond my comprehension that people will put first and defend rapists, murderers, robbers and drug-dealers rather than support and defend the wishes of good people of Britain against these monsters?

Yay! All racists together What a hideous club it is

And Rolf Harris?

Allison Pearson the women who used another women's looks against her when writing about that persons leadership potential. Ye Pearson and the telegraph are a disgrace. Ps our suggests us all. She is not on my side.

The only side she is on is her own

Except if you're not white

Nationalism is winning - on both sides of the Scottish border | Rafael BehrIf you’re not a Tory it’s hard to defend the union when Boris Johnson is its champion, says Guardian columnist Rafael Behr That's awesome! I hope more of Europe wakes up! I was just talking about this with some friends today. The only way forward for Europe if it is to survive is a strong resurgence of nationalism across the continent South of the border see nationalism as England wales and Scotland, north of the border see nationalism as Scotland alone This feels like a false equivalence.
