Eleven Pakistani nationals,ten held student visas, all extremists, how would you toughen UK student visa law?

eleven Pakistani nationals, ten held student visas, and one UK-born Briton are being questioned at various locations in the UK.

Pakistan's High Commissioner, Wajid Shamsul Hasan, dismissed claims that his country was not doing enough to tackle the extremists, insisting it was the UK that needed to do more.

    None yet charged with any offence, let alone convicted of any offence.

    We hear lots about dawn raids and plots thwarted, but there don't seem to be many convictions in court resulting from these events.

    Does anyone else think the government might just be rounding up a few overseas students and holding them for a week or two so it looks like they're doing something?

    Its been pointed out that its easier to watch and capture this scum once they're in the UK. The Pakistanis dont have any idea as to how to control these b*stards.

    So we let them into the UK, follow them, make sure they're guilty, arrest them ... and once no ones looking .... throw them off the cliffs at Dover.

    Well ... why should we waste money on paying for bullets.

    And he is right I suggest ... statistically, eleven people arrested on suspicion of terror offences where they are all Pakistani suggests that we need to close our doors to all 'students' of Pakistani origin. Yes, tough for the others but they are setting a precedent here and national security is of far greater importance that offending the few. And we need to reassure the great British public that this country is not open house to all that which to come here and plan to kill and maim. I am proud to be British but I am not proud of the Islamic invasion.

    Why do Pakistanis have to travel all the way to a hufar country like UK to study? Don't they have any universities in Pakistan or in neighbouring countries? They are more likely studying in Hufar know how in how to make suicide and chemical bombs, and weapons of mass destruction like they did in Iraq. Closing the door on them studying here would greatly help towards countering terrorism.

    British uni's are strapped for cash, and rely on foreign students. All Pakistanis should be given a UK student visa, together with their Imams, and a new course, bomb constructure, be instituted. The pass rates of the higher degrees would be phenomenal.

    Make everyone carry an I.D. with photo card. We had them in the war, and what have you got to worry about if you have nothing to hide.

    Do we know for sure that they are terrorists and not just students? I mean, everyone seems to be going on about it and nothing actually is known for sure yet.
