Shame on the British government for a treaty set up by the war criminal Tony Blair which has only been ratified by the UK. This means that the British government can send us to America to be tortured and abused but no American has or will be extradited to the UK.

The treaty was fully ratified by the US in September 2006 (and came into force April 26, 2007), and as at December 2007, there had been 17 US citizens extradited to the UK - linky

Since the Act was introduced in 2004, many more UK citizens have been extradited to the US than have flown the other way. Out of 97 requests by the US, 52 have been granted; the UK has made 26 requests and 17 US citizens have been sent here

btw, I don't think Gary McKinnon should be extradited - I think he should be tried in the UK.
