I believe that, like many Brits, I am sick of those gifted with dual nationality ( which should not be allowed), using that privelege to cause trouble in foreign lands, always expecting Britain to have his/her back when they find themselves under arrest. If this man wants his country of origin to change, ie, adopt western values and human rights, then let him do so, but at his own risk, prepared to face the consequences. And that goes for his family. It simply proves how many who now hold a British passport regard it as a mere convenience. A tool for accessing the lifestyle and benefits unobtainable in their native lands, and allowing them to pursue their political activities abroad, with intervention from good old Blighty when things turn serious.

England needs to stop handing out Brtish Passports. Foreigners make their problems ours.
