Shamima Begum has appeal rejected

‘People’ do not have the information available to the Home Secretary Siope. Do you not recall his comment ‘If you knew what I know’?

The panel, however, do have that information.

The judgement is interesting, and, given what it highlights about the power that a single individual has to interpret and administer the law, concerning.

Greta Thunberg was 15 when she lectured world leaders on the worlds stage.

SB was 15 when she decided to join Daesh.

She is the U.K.’s problem, she should be in the U.K. face a trial and if found guilty imprisoned.

Very well said Maw.

My feelings too Maw. She was of an age to know quite well what she was doing.

I agree with the panel, whose judgement is that, whilst it was lawful for the decision to be made by the Hime Secretary, with regard to the decision itself
“Reasonable people will profoundly disagree with the Secretary of State…”

My feelings too Maw

I'm not sure what the consequences for her will be, and I didn't see the documentary either, but I agree with Maw that she was not 'trafficked' in the usual sense of the word and arguments for her return to the UK should be based on other considerations.

Glad she has lost her appeal. Right decision.

Couldn't agree more, Maw.

Well said Maw.

There’s already a thread about her with comments on the loss of the appeal.

I could only see the thread about the documentary which I did not see so I’ll add my tuppenceworth here.
I understand Shamima Begum is only one of over 100 cases where appeals have been lodged or heard or rejected.
I believe the government was within the law to deprive her of her citizenship in the first place and to reject her appeal.
Young women/girls of 15 may be below the age of majority but she admits she incited and encouraged the girls who accompanied her, lied to police and far from being “groomed” or “trafficked” ignored opportunities to approach the authorities while in this country.
She makes it clear that she knew very well what she was doing and while she may have been starry eyed about the future she envisaged for herself, she acted of her own volition.
That she now has to live with the consequences sends a clear message to those who have acted likewise or may be tempted to.

Oops, I should have added to that thread. Only just seen it, sorry.

I agree with the decision too.
