Re: IS Bride citizenship revoked.
Don't lets go there. This is their problem and there are too many perspectives for any Irish person to comprehensively grasp.
Re: IS Bride citizenship revoked.
Not sure about that - you can't make someone stateless but it seems she may qualify for Bangladeshi or Dutch citizen through her mother and husband respectively. They have basically said to (possibly) two other nations that despite her being born and raised in England, she is their problem. Not very nice.Oldschool wrote:The British government are to be congratulated imho.

Agree - the problem was born, raised and radicalised in the UK and exported to Syria. Not sure they can wash their hands of all responsibility (quite apart from the fact that it's probably illegal to do so). Just because the person is entitled to another passport doesn't mean the UK can leave them stateless. That logic would mean that they could unilaterally remove nationality from any UK citizens with Irish grandparents on the basis that they are entitled to Irish passports.domhnallj wrote:Not sure about that - you can't make someone stateless but it seems she may qualify for Bangladeshi or Dutch citizen through her mother and husband respectively.

Flip it around - if there was a Syrian cleric, for example, preaching hate crime in London and the UK decided to deport him. How would they feel if Syria revoked citizenship and said to the UK - sorry, it's your problem, you can't deport. Doesn't make sense
I like your right leg. A lovely leg for the role.
I've got nothing against your right leg.

Re: IS Bride citizenship revoked.
If a 14/15 year old girl was groomed by an adult for sex would anyone even consider blaming the girl?
If a 14/15 year old girl was brainwashed by a cult, would anyone even consider blaming the girl?
Children are vulnerable to psychological manipulation by adults - never mind paedo/hebephiles or cults- we don't even let toy companies advertise to them without some of the strictest regulation in the industry.
We don't let 14 and 15 year olds have sex, drink, drive, smoke, work full time or do lots of other things because they're too young and immature
Yet it's okay to render someone stateless because as a 14/15 year old they fell victim to the same kind of psychological manipulation that we freely admit exists and works.

What would you do were it your problem, assuming you agree that she is a problem.

Re: IS Bride citizenship revoked.
Shes a now-19 year old victim of abuse. So we treat her like we treat any victim of child abuse. She's not a problem, she's a person
But dehumanizing the victim makes things simpler
It's like breathing with a respirator
It eases the conscience of even the most conscious
And calculating violator

Re: IS Bride citizenship revoked.
Surely that logic can be applied to everyone that has done bad things or made bad decisions in the past? I mean if you look back far enough I'm sure you can find the trigger, identify why they behaved in a certain way, absolve them of all responsibility (it was environmental or societal etc) and work towards correcting the behavior.Dave Cahill wrote:Shes a now-19 year old victim of abuse.

Re: IS Bride citizenship revoked.
fully appreciate the fact that this is a very obvious trolling thread. but the answer is very clear - the UK has a clear duty of care for this young lady and is failing really badly for whatever political reason that suits them right now.Oldschool wrote:You've described the situation but haven't offered any solutions.Dave Cahill wrote:If a 14/15 year old girl was groomed by an adult for sex would anyone even consider blaming the girl?

Re: IS Bride citizenship revoked.
If you were to look at the case on paper then I can see why people would think the UK should help her, but not when you see the interview she did.
I don't doubt that she was brainwashed, and she obviously has an incredibly low IQ, but that interview outweighs everything else IMO.

The whole issue of radicalisation is one of the major threats to our society which whether you or I like is based on Christian values allied to gradual liberalism.
Stick your head in the sand if you want but don't pretend this is just throlling because it suits you to take that very convenient view.
As for duty of care, the state has a equal duty of care to all its' citizens.
PS I suggest you lend the UK your magic wand, explain to them that a simple wave of it and problem solved.

Re: IS Bride citizenship revoked.
You'd have to consider her surroundings while giving that original interview. I'd imagine the world is a very different place when your in the middle of that sh!t and have been for a long time.
Personally I think people like her are a little scary and I can understand the reluctance within the UK to take her back. I don't think they have a choice though. She should be brought back and managed.

The troll test is very easy - would a right minded person actually believe what they have posted.

2: our society is no longer based on Christian superstitions it is based on the values of the enlightenment which promotes the search for knowledge and truth over suprerstition and blind faith and obedience to the pulpit.
c: my head is not in the sand, anyone born before 1985 knows the full impact of having a religious bureauracy in partial control of the state - and remember only some of ours were fanatics - most were just sheep with a healthy smattering of truly odious individuals. I do not think radicals should be allowed to take control.
4: yes, society does have an equal duty of care to all of it's members - banishment is not a valid solution to this problem.

1. It's likely there is no correct solution only a least worst. Banishment might well be the least worst.

Re: IS Bride citizenship revoked.
Revoking citizenship is not new but it is extreme and is normally reserved for dissidents, I suppose she counts. USSR did it it Solzhenitsyn. It's a sign of weakness, should they really be afraid of her?
If they had done it when she left it would have been different. If she had been returning to infiltrate she wouldn't have waited until she was suffering in a refugee camp, so the terrorism angle would have carried more weight.
Now it's just politically embarrassing not to hurt her.

2. So thou shat not kill isn't enlightened, it's superstition is it - you knew what I meant. The only reason we kept that one is because it makes sense - you'll notice we've dropped the ban on working the sabbath and we no longer urge slaves to obey their masters, and that whole thing about women covering their heads - I'm pretty sure that's optional now. Sadly withces are still burned regularly
c. Radicals will take control where there is a vacuum filled by sheep. Yup agree with you here - but as you said in point 1 - if true there's a whole loada sheep whooping, cheering and singing Brittania rules the waves
4. Banishment - Well I'm waiting to hear your other valid (and workable) solutions. Like try her, find her guilty, throw her in prison and hope that's the end of it, knowing it won't be. Not my place, I'm no expert in the legal system - but just for instance we could look at the example of forgiveness for child soldiers? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rehabilit ... d_soldiers

Re: IS Bride citizenship revoked.
Haven't watched the interview. I agree with JRM said in the clip above. But dispassionately, I think govts should be constrained in what they can and can't do. They must whether they like it or not face up to the risks this poses without going "deux ex machina". It has massive potential to back fire with other countries doing similar in the future. There's also an ethical issue with larger/wealthier countries forcing their problems onto smaller/poorer ones. Australia are doing the same with Fiji at the moment even though the guy has never set foot in Fiji.LeRouxIsPHat wrote:If you were to look at the case on paper then I can see why people would think the UK should help her, but not when you see the interview she did.

Anecdonteally, I've read that allowing them to do this would enable them to revoke citizenship to c7m British people who are elligible for Irish citizenship in the UK. I'm guesssing but I think this is a reason it could ultimately fail in court....which won't matter to minister in question.
