Shamima Begum: Runaway IS bride to find out if she can return to UK

[Mekrel]

Let's just remember, she was FIFTEEN when she was radicalised, she was a child.

Almost certainly the victim of rape and child marriage.

Multiple children all since died.

What evidence is there that she is still a risk to the country?

Maybe, just maybe a little compassion would be better placed than the frothing that is so prevalent.

She proactively took the decision to leave the UK, she wasn't kidnapped and I don't buy the excuse that she was only fifteen. That's plenty old enough to know that joining a murderous cult isn't right.

Birthing children in an active warzone when you've proactively chosen to leave the UK and it's highly regarded NHS...

I'll save my compassion and sympathy for those who were murdered and persecuted by ISIS. Which couldn't differ more from the lack of compassion she showed for the victims of the Manchester bombing attack.

The only time she has demonstrated remorse was after the demise of the terrorist state she was party to, and her situation became unsatisfactory.

Her attempt to back peddle on her extreme views and dressing in a more Western style doesn't fool me and thankfully doesn't fool our intelligence service.

she's received almost £250,000 in legal aid, funded by British taxpayers.

That is the equivalent of someone working full time for 40 years on the national average wage (£35k) paying £6k pa in tax.

Plus, if she ever was allowed back in this country, she would receive millions in compensation from the British government and probably many more millions from book sales and media appearances.

It’s disgusting to be honest

All of which would have been averted had we not mistakenly cancelled her Citizenship. We have allowed hundreds if ISIS fighters back into the country as have other nations around the world. The Home Secretary at the time turned her into a celebrity and set in motion this inevitable process, had she just been allowed to return she would be long forgotten or if as implied she poses such a massive national security risk she could be tried and locked up. Instead we squander hundreds of thousands and leave Syria to deal with our problems.
