And many people detest in the UK and detest that decision and the woman who made it.
And so what if you make a bad decision historically? Are you suggesting that having made one that's a precedent and we should continue doing the wrong thing?
The rights and wrongs of this case aren't determined about mistakes that may or may not have been made in the past.
- barking 14y agoPlease don't downvote, I just can't miss this opportunity to re-tell a joke from the time (Everton, an English football team, had a reputation for being boring to watch). What do Everton and General Pinochet have in common? They both force people into football stadiums and torture them.

- Tyrannosaurs 14y agoMy mistake. As it was Blair then obviously a decent, honest humanitarian decision... joke
- Tyrannosaurs 14y agoEDIT: It wasn't Mrs. T but I stand by the fact that it wouldn't be a decision that most in the UK would support, whoever made it.
- brudgers 14y agoTony Blair was Prime Minister when Pinochet was detained (pity the fool who calls him "Mr. T"). Thatcher, however, publicly opposed his extradition.
