Rejected petition We request that Shamima Begum be permanently banned from returning to the UK.
Shamima Begum, aged 19,wishes to return to the United Kingdom to get care for her unborn baby.
She had left the Uk at the age of 15 to take part in the armed struggle of ISIS. She expresses no regret for her participation in this war against Her Majesty .
More details
Shamima Begum has stated that she was "unfazed" at the sight of severed heads in dustbins, following executions by ISIS.
BBC News has stated that the Home Secretary has the power to strip her of her British citizenship.
Other sources today have denied this, saying that such stripping can only take place if Shamima Begum has dual nationality.
In any event, she must be prevented from ever setting foot in the Uk, since her presence here is clearly not in the public interest.
