She wasn't a diplomat. The body in the UK that has the power to make & approve new legislation is Parliament. So I'm not sure how a secret agreement between the executive in the UK & USA would make an attempt by a housewife to flee justice 'lawful'.

Not needed. Ukgov were culpable in allowing her to flee. UK & US governments both totally devoid of morals and corrupt

Should “journalists” not be pointing out that there was no loophole. Instead the UK government helped her out of the UK because keeping USA happy is more important than justice fir someone who has been killed

No loophole to close. She didn’t have diplomatic immunity. She was intentionally let go by the Foreign Secretary.

About bloody time

Good. Our extradition policy with the US must be on an equal footing.
