The son of convicted terrorist Abu Hamza, previously in prison in Yemen for plotting a “bombing campaign,” somehow managed to get a job in London’s Tube.  London Mayor Ken Livingstone said he was glad Mohammed Kamel Mostafa was working and didn’t have reservations about him working in a known Al Qaida target.

A Tube Lines spokesman said: “Tube Lines can confirm that the individual in question was employed by one of our contractors. The contractor has confirmed that he met the relevant employment requirements of London Underground and UK legislation and that his pass was issued by an accredited supplier.

“Under the requirements, Tube Lines and its contractors are required to validate the probity of the people they employ, in terms of competence and right to work in the UK. Tube Lines requires all employees to declare convictions or charges against them, as does the contractor in question.”

Simply amazing.
