Sajid Javid the grim reaper.

In a cowardly capitulation to the "hang-em and flog-em" brigade on the Tory back benches, Sajid Javid has argued that the killing of "non-British" citizens is no concern of the British government. The jihadis have simply been deprived of their British citizenship to enable the government to effectively re-introduce the death penalty. The decision was revealed without parliamentary debate and only through a leak.

The fake argument has been used that  Alexanda Kotey and El Shafee Elsheikh should not be allowed to "walk free". In point of fact "walking free" and the death penalty are not the only options. Sajid Javid is well aware of this. He does not stop his supporters from saying it though.

Anyone can be deprived of British citizenship and condemned to death under this new policy. It could be you. It could be me.

The Tory right are rubbing their hands with glee. The Sun is calling for blood and more blood. This is a shameful attempt to divert attention from a government which is falling apart at the seams. Sajid Javid should not be allowed to get away with it.
