Prior to implementation of Citizenship Directive 04/38 there were limited possibilities. Many other EU states made use of these of from time to time, but it seems the UK being more
communautaire and what have you seemed pretty much to have a policy of not deporting EU/EEA nationals anyway. Actually this makes logical sense really according to the law because if one really does pose such a fundamental and serious threat to society, what on earth would they be doing out of prison/death row in the first instance? (A question based on theoretical logic, not necessarily the practical realities of how many legal systems work, nor an opinion for or against the Citizenship Directive in the context of a country already bound by the Evil Union.)
