Islamic State bride Shamima Begum has been told she is to loose her British citizenship, but this decision may still be reversed. Shamina, who travelled to Syria at the young age of 15 to become a bride to Islamic terrorists sparked uproar when she told British media that she was ok with beheadings and had no problem with it.
A letter to her mother informing her of plans to revoke her British citizenship has shocked the foolish girl . The decision to revoke her British citizenship may still be legally reversed because British law that permits the revocation of British citizenship can only occur if the individual will not become, become stateless as a result. The 1981 British Nationality Act requires the withdrawal of a British national’s citizenship if it is “conducive to the public good” , and they would not become stateless as a result.
Her family lawyer, Tasnime Akunje has disputed statements that Begum is a dual citizenship, saying all legal avenues to appeal the decision will be made. However, Begum has already shot herself in the foot by announcing plans to explore becoming a Dutch national through her husband, an Islamic convert thought to have surrendered to Islamic fighters a few weeks ago. Begum has a child for him. If for any reason, Begum is denied Dutch citizenship, the Home Office may be legally forced to reverse its plans to withdraw Begum’s British citizenships because it would be unlawful.

At the moment, she has the option of becoming a Dutch national, and so will not be stateless. If her husband were to die before she makes such an application, Britain could be stuck with her.
Begum expressed her “shock” at what she described as an “unjust” decision of the UK government to remove her British citizenship. The 19-year-old said the Home Office decision was “kind of heartbreaking to read” and “hard to swallow”. Begum recently claimed she didn’t do anything wrong except be a housewife to Isis fighters. She also attempted to justify the Manchester arena attack, by stating this to have been retaliation for bombings in Syria.
