Closed petition Revoke citizenship/benefits from anyone who supports or has supported terrorism

The Government should revoke citizenship and access to benefits from anyone who supports or has supported terrorism.

More details

Home Office guidance states that anyone who "incites, justifies or glorifies" terrorist violence or "seeks to provoke others to terrorist acts" will ordinarily be denied citizenship. However, there are individuals in the UK holding citizenship that have supported terrorist groups. This petition is to revoke citizenship and access to benefits from anyone who supports or has supported terrorism and already holds citizenship.
