Closed Stop extradition of UK nationals and replace with provisions for domestic trials

Closed on

UK citizens must not be extradited abroad for criminal or administrative offences. Instead the Government should provide for UK courts to try cases of alleged offences abroad, according to UK law.

I think UK citizens should only be tried by a UK court. A foreign court system can be used to put pressure on British citizens as well as being used for other improper purposes. I believe only a UK court can be totally impartial in the trial of a British citizen.
