Rejected petition Immigrants convicted of serious crimes should be deported, passports recinded and assets ceased

More details

Criminals convicted of serious crimes i.e. murder should be deported along with their dependants, their passports withheld and any assets recovered by the crown. I feel we cannot afford to keep undesirable immigrants and keep their families on benefits should the main wage earner/benefit claimant be in prison.
