First, she has broken our law by going to Syria to join a proscribed terrorist organisation.You see no reason for accepting her back. Flecc - so what? If she has a valid passport she has every right to come back. End of.
If in due course she breaks some law - then as I said she will have to deal with that. But until then - you gotta play by the rules.
The fact that she wants to come back........ don't you think that tells you something? Do you not think she will have learned a valuable lesson? But regardless that's not the point. We have to all live by the laws we agree to - otherwise there is nothing but anarchy.
Second, passports can be and have been revoked.
Third, she is not stateless if we reject her, since she chose to join Islamic State. That won it's territory to create its state in just the way most countries are created, including Britain. The fact that most of its territory has now been won back is immaterial.
And fourth, what she's said clearly shows she's learnt no lesson, she still supports that Islamist cause.
