    Yeah, so Shamima Begum's challenge has failed.

    The ruling body has declared that the Home Secretary's stripping of her citizenship in 2016 was lawful.

    There are some people who say she was somehow 'groomed' but this is complete bullshit. She was no more groomed by ISIS than a 15 year-old kid, who sees an advert for chocolate and then goes out and buys a chocolate bar is being groomed by Cadbury's, or whatever.

    Glad to see common sense has won out this time.

    @Stan - how can she stand trial in the UK?

    The things she did were in Syria/Iraq, not the UK.

    (Shamima Begum has committed no crime on British soil.)

    She should run for Congress in the US. I hear “The Squad” needs some fresh ideas.

    precisely. She is just being made a scapegoat.

    Perhaps she should stand trial in a Syrian-Kurdish court.
