flipping heck, that was a little excessive.

Not really.

I'm wondering why, after 5 failed appeals, he's still in the UK anyway.

To be fair, given that UK invaded Iraq it is not unreasonable that those who fled the carnage from there should gain asylum in UK and USA (as well as other members of the "coalition of the willing").

However Iraq is far away from UK, and anybody running away from there could have stopped in some other country on the way to UK.

From the two Iraqi's I met it was an improvement afterwards, power cuts and disruption but not so many executions.

But precisely he could have stopped in a nearer country.

Sending him back few years ago (like in 2008) would have been crazy, but now it seems a lot better.

Why "Darkie go home"? That implies a bias/racial element the I don't see in the article. He is being asked to go home based on the assessment criteria in place which have nothing to do with his skin colour.

Iraq is worse today than when he left.

Ironically if Saddam Hussein was still in place then his asylum case would be pretty solid.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing. I'd settle for some foresight right now.

we should have got rid Saddam when he invaded Kuwait.

He was always a nutter, he was just our nutter.
