My name is John & I'm a new member

I am from UK and have a good working knowledge of parliamentary procedure etc & take a keen interest in the McKinnon case.  I also have quite a good knowledge of some of the other issues surrounding this and - sadly - the Fair Trial Issue is one of them.

The UK - US Extradition Treaty being used does have a serious imbalance:-The US only have to provide basic information for extradition of UK subjects (we're NOT citizens) whereas the UK have to show Probable Cause for the extradition of US citizens.

Using an approximate arithmetical comparison, it means the US only has to provide about 1/3 the proof to extradite a UK subject to their jurisdiction

This is only one of many legislative imbalances that Britain has
