Stuck my name down, I really hope this petition makes a difference, the fact that our spineless government can't step in abhors me.
Good luck to your father Neil, I hope he and your family make it through this awful time.

Signed.

I dispair with politicians, how is it that Blair is still free. When will this extradition fiasco be stopped.

It is staggering that our government can have agreed to this in the first place, but to implement it on such poor evidence is criminal.

The "special relationship" should not exists at the expense of our own citizens.

The post 9/11 era has been used by Hawks and warmongers in the US to trample over the rights of citizens all over the world, and now we find evidence of their hand on our shores. It's a shameful stain on the values that this country should be built upon.

Thoughts and support to the Tappin family.

Done.Looks like Mr Tappin is being extradited on the grounds he tried to buy Eagle Picher batteries.I've just googled them and they are easy to buy, especially in Florida.

Yet another example of out govt's priorities being goosed.

Dear All,

I've just taken 10 minutes to read through all the responses to Mike's thread. I can't thank you all enough for your support, it's quite overwhelming. It is a surreal situation and we are doing all we can in these last few days to get someone within our government to take it seriously.

Thank you again for your support and for signing the petition.

Neil

A friend of mine was to be deported and I actually phoned the house of commons and got it stopped.... don't know if you've actually done/tried that... it seems extreme but it DID work for me.

20yrs on and he's still here.

Signed and raised with my MP.

Absolutely disgusting. Can only echo the thoughts to the family.

We're all going to the dogs faster than I thought if this sort of treatment of our own citizens is anything to go by.

Details passed on a freelance legal journalist mate of mine to see if he can spread the word through the profession through Twitter and Facebook and hopefully hit some names at the big firms to start spreading it.
