Would you wish to live next door to this man and his family?

/// As part of the £100,000-a-week monitoring, two security cameras have also been put on lampposts near the house. ///

Could he take measures to get these removed for breaching his human rights?

/// The owner of the property, who rents it out through an agency for £1,400 a month, had no idea who the new tenant was and now wants him out. She said: "There's no way I would have given permission to rent it out to a man like that. I don't want that man in my house." ///

Could she be accused and convicted of being racist?

[friedgreentomato]

Would she refuse any other tennant based on their colour and their religion?

Does she normally vet her tennents? I got the impression she did'nt so how can she refuse this one?

[jake-the-peg]

1/ He could possibly - it depends

2/ Why do you assume it's a racist remark - I'd imagine that his link to terrorist actions is higher up her agenda than the colour of his skin - Unless she's got a load of IRA men already liviing on the other side!

[TWR]

No.

[Baldric]

Just out of curiosity, what nationality is she?
It might have some bearing on the answer.

[sp1814]

Why would she be considered a racist???

Your train of thought seems to be a few stations ahead of the rest of us.

I think she is justified in what she says. Qatada has broken the law . . . .

Oh yes he has!!

'Two cars of plain-clothes police officers constantly watch the house...'
Neighbours can only benefit from their presence.

The law is an ass. In WWII they hung enemies who had infiltrated our borders and there was no appeal unlike today where we treat them like Lords.

[emmie]

no she couldn't. If she has a managing agents they would do the donkey work of finding her tenants. Had she known you her tenants would be then i think it would be within her rights to refuse them, irrespective of their ethnicity. No i wouldn't want to live next door to him or his family, why are they still in Britain.

[emmie]

sandyroe, the plod watching this man are unlikely to be looking for the burglars two doors down.

[sir.prize]

We were told that when Cameron and the King of Jordan met last week, they would sort Qatada out - did they?

[emmie]

unlikely

[naomi24]

No, I wouldn't want him as a neighbour - I don't want him in the country - and if anyone thinks that down to race, colour, religion, or anything other than the fact that he's a dangerous, obnoxious, hate-filled individual, then they need to think again. The sooner we get rid of him the better.

!TROLL ALERT!

Oh look, its AOG trying to bring race into a topic that has no race issue again!

Last week it was the Newtown massacre and now its some poor sod who has possibly the most despised person in the country being moved into their house.

"Could she be accused and convicted of being racist?"

Morning AOG, brilliant trolling of the highest order right there. ;0)

[youngmafbog]

Howerv Goon, the racist card is often pulled so no reason to think it could not be here. This vile man and his pond life lawyers will try any trick in the book.

That is because I am not saying she 'WOULD' be considered a racist, but what I am suggesting is the fact that if she did evict them, because of his terrorist connections etc, the fact that because he and his family also happen to be of a different race, they have the added advantage of fighting their eviction on racial grounds.

A similar scenario would be thus, a black family is causing trouble due to them holding late night parties, with loud music blasting out into the early hours, along with a history of other anti social behaviour, the landlord says they have to move out, they would also have the added advantage of playing the race card.

[Goonermatt]

"Added advantage"

Like a built in perk that non-white people can use when it suits them?
