Apparently we’re not the only English-speaking nation with politically correct lunatics running the show.

The once-great nation of Britain, who staved off the Nazis at the Battle of Britain, whose lion Churchill roared “. . .  we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender. . .” is about to go wobbly and pay £1 million to the last British prisoner at Guantanamo.

Yes, you read correctly. Saudi-born Shaker Aamer, who has been in prison for 13 years — 7 years longer than the last British prisoner there — is set to be returned to London to his wife and four children. And it appears that he has friends in some very high places: Prime Minister David Cameron pleaded his case to President Obama on a trip to the United States in January, which Obama promptly agreed to “prioritize,” and voilà — Aamer is set for release. Not only that, he’s about to cash in on £1 million in compensation for his troubles and woes at Gitmo.

It turns out that Aamer isn’t the only British jihadi to be paid large sums of money upon release. The British government has already paid out enormous compensations to released detainees to avoid costly court cases that could involve intelligence service members testifying.
