Should Shemima Begum be allowed back in the UK?

[AdmiralAckbar]

Can't we just adopt Ms May's delaying tactics and keep her hanging on until 29th March ... she might have a different opinion after that date

Have the Corbynites voiced their opinion yet?

[Alikado]

Too late now, we should have introduced Internment of all retuning Jihadis whilst investigations take place, not a torture chamber like Guantamamo Bay.

I say yes on the grounds she was a child when the initial crime was committed.


Let her home to face any charges as an adult.

But she is now 19 and the crime is still being committed in that she sees no wrong in what she has been a part of.

It may be fake news but I also saw on Facebook that her father is as heavily committed as she is to Islamic State and all it stands for.

I would not be surprised.
Unless Shemima tells her story all those around her will escape responsibility for the monstrous beliefs she parrots.

Nope nope and nope

[toothache]

It's a definately NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO from me .

. . and a very definite No from me too.

... not sure why you are asking me that - with your Corbyn obsession I would have thought you'd be best placed to answer your own question.

I saw this on the net, although obviously written with tongue in cheek there is a certain amount of truth in it.

A girl from the United Kingdom has been telling her harrowing story about how she accidentally joined ISIS after fleeing to an ISIS stronghold area, finding a member of ISIS and asking them if she could then join ISIS then marrying an ISIS fighter and having his children.

I still feel it is a no to take away her citizenship.

After that my feelings are that Shamima and all the other women in her situation who left as children and return as adults face the full weight
of criminal charges.

I asked you as an adherent of the party which targets the Islamic vote.

I would have expected Comrade Corbyn to put out a statement.
It seems he left it to Dianne Abbott.

Don't often agree with Piers Morgan but this time he's absolutely SPOT ON.

These are the women who leave their homes, families, friends and countries to go and marry the world’s worst terrorists.
They have sex with them, they breed with them, they cook for them, they clean for them, they love them and they worship them.
And while they’re doing all this, their husbands are busy raping, torturing, stoning, beheading and murdering people.
They have no thought or care for the poor victims of their despicable monsters - they’re just excited by the murderous brutality.
Now, predictably, they both want to return to the safety of their original countries and live at OUR tax-payer expense.
To which I say, and excuse my language here but sometimes it’s entirely appropriate: Go ****** yourselves.
As for Begum, she hasn’t even bothered to lie about having remorse or regret for what she did, saying she had a ‘good time’ and the experience made her ‘stronger and tougher’.
Today, she even defended the appalling ISIS-inspired terror attack on an Ariana Grande pop concert in Manchester, England, in 2017 that killed 22 people, many of them young female fans.
Begum said it was a ‘two-way thing’, insisting: ‘Because women and children are being killed back in the Islamic State right now, it’s kind of retaliation… so I thought “OK, it’s a fair justification.”’
The utterly deluded cretin, now 19, added that ‘people should have sympathy’ for her.
Really?
Let me explain how much sympathy I have for you, young lady: zero.
In fact, less than zero. I have a minus level of sympathy for you.
All my reservoirs of sympathy are reserved for those who lost their lives at the hands of your vicious, evil husband.
You’re a repellent excuse for a human being who actively aided and abetted the very worst terrorists in the world.
In doing so, you renounced your country, and everything it stands for.
Worse than that, you openly supported the murder of your fellow citizens.
So the idea that now your ISIS husbands and friends have been virtually wiped out in Syria, and your participant role in the glorious Caliphate has crashed and burned, you simply trot home like nothing has happened is as absurd as it’s offensive.
You made your ISIS husband beds, now you can rot in hell in them.

I can't abide Piers Morgan, but, like you, I agree with him on this topic.

I read that one of your politicians, can't remember the name, has talked about rewriting the old treason laws in order to be able to apply them to returning Jihadists (and brides) The sooner the better.

I support a party that is for the many, not the few ...

Why even mention "the Islamic vote" ... Are you suggesting that other parties "do/do not" or even "should/should not" target that particular vote?

The fact that you have mentioned Abbott's statement adds merit to my earlier post "with your Corbyn obsession I would have thought you'd be best placed to answer your own question".

Here we go again with the clap trap about her being a child when she left. For legal labelling reasons - yes. In reality - no.
