Jihadist preacher Anjem Choudary backs Remain because EU ‘stops unfair deportations’
The controversial cleric claims the British constitution 'rides roughshod' over human rights
CONTROVERSIAL cleric Anjem Choudary is backing Remain because the EU stops unfair deportations, he says.
The preacher, 48, said its human rights laws give better protection.
Choudary said: “When we talk about protections of human rights and civil liberties there’s some recourse, because of the EU, for people violated in terms of their rights.”
He said: “The British constitution rides roughshod over these.”
Choudary, who denies terror charges over Isis support, said terrorists would be “rubbing their hands”.
He also said Isis would like a Brexit because Scotland would go independent, making the Army smaller.
