""Don't you know that aspects of the criminal law in Malaysia & Singapore -- with #s of annual executions* ( surpassed only by such as Saudi), & flogging for illegal immigrants as well as for muggers -- are a hissing & a byword to many?""

All well and fine Mike.

Do I hate the kind of government that countenances these outrages? YES I DO!

Do I think it is the UKs job to take them on militarily and clean them up? NO I DON'T!

We have an international body supposed to deal with this kind of stuff. What we should be doing is ensuring that it has the teeth to do the job.
Getting rid of the stupid one nation veto would be a good start.
