Shamima Begum, who left London when she was 15 to travel to Syria and join Islamic State, has lost a legal case over her British citizenship, meaning she will not be able to return to the UK.
Begum had her British citizenship stripped from her in 2019, on national security grounds by then-home secretary Sajid Javid.
She was found at a displacement camp in Syria and told the media she wished to return to Britain, the country where she was born.
In 2019, she showed no remorse for her role in Islamic State.
The Home Office has repeatedly asserted she would be a threat to public safety if she is allowed to return to the UK.
Lawyers for Begum have argued the government's repeated refusal to allow her back contravenes her family's rights, with her parents saying they continue to miss their daughter.
When Sky News last spoke to Begum in 2021 in Syria, she said she didn't hate the UK, just her life at the time she left to join IS, and described living under the caliphate as "hell, hell on earth".

Maybe she should have anticipated that possibility, before she went over. I think maybe the adrenaline rush, of being in ISIS, wears off really fast.
Awwww.... her parents miss their pwecious daughter.
Not enough to join her, obviously.
“I ran out of gas! I got a flat tire! I didn’t have change for cab fare! I lost my tux at the cleaners! I locked my keys in the car! An old friend came in from out of town! Someone stole my car! There was an earthquake! A terrible flood! Locusts! IT WASN’T MY FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD!”
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Is this a story from Pakistan or from India, hard to tell? And what does Britain have to do with it - they’re not colonies anymore?
This is actually not far fetched in the slightest.
Why didn’t you call me like you said you would.
I checked your Facebook and Instagram.
You have time for those, but can’t think of me.
You said you’d call when you got home.
You’re only 15 min. away - so where are you now?
Interestingly, my guess is Harry is being hounded by Meghan into defending her honor against South Park. Harry in turn is using the Lawyer excuse to not draw anymore attention to it.
He’s in a perpetual bad place until he figures this out and leaves.
“her parents saying they continue to miss their daughter.”
so? they can always go visit her in jihadiland any time they want to if they miss her that badly ... and of course, there’s always Zoom ...
Damn! That’s not the sketch!
She made her bed, now she gets to lay in it.
Who do you think is funding her defense...
YEP the taxpayer!!
It’s over anyway.
Thank you, Donald Trump!
Alot of brits say that the last 2 minutes of the Worldwide Privacy Tour was what the whole episode is aboot; that Megan is an empty, evil soul and Harry should leave:
The prince looks to his wife for support, but she's silent. He flips open the top half of her head, and shouts inside. All he hears is an echoing sound from the endless chasm.
That’s the best part.
I recoiled when I saw it and said “ouch!”, then start laughing out loud.
The hollow echo was perfection.
Someone redid her look and clothes and photographers.
This was a huge PR team hired .
When Sky News last spoke to Begum in 2021 in Syria, she said she didn't hate the UK, just her life at the time she left to join IS, and described living under the caliphate as "hell, hell on earth".
Lesson learned. Now she can enjoy the consequences of her actions.
Who needs another sullen angry 15 year-old? Who needs another muslim at all?
