Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has said the UK government should consider allowing Shamima Begum, who left the country to join the Islamic State group in 2015, to return to the UK.
"I've never wanted to. I've instinctively never wanted to. But I'm now thoughtful, I'm thoughtful. I don't classify her as an ISIS, an all out ISIS killer," Farage told ITV News Political Correspondent Harry Horton.
"So she's sort of less... She is a lesser part of the equation," he added.
Farage made the comments after Donald Trump's terror chief Seb Gorka said on Thursday that ISIS members in Syria should be allowed home.
"It's very difficult for us to think we should take back people, Shamima Begum and others, and instinctively, instinctively, it's not something I want to do.
"Gorka argues that if we and other European countries don't take back these people and put them in prison here, they will get out of prison under the new Syrian regime, leading to a problem that in the end we may all have to fight," Farage said.

BTW, I think this is what Trump thinks too and Farage could be preparing the ground here.
What is the Freeper position on these ISIS Brides... ?
She gave up her citizenship to be a bride, she should have to live with that decision. If I give up my citizenship, for whatever reason I give it up, I should not be able to get it back back I realize my error.
At the very least, she should be naturalized like anybody else if the government is going to repatriate her, including all tests and requirements.
Nigel!!
What are you saying here?
What happened to you.
How much $ did it take?
I said it on FR a couple of days ago. Farage is a squish and is the Brit version of Trey Gowdy. Find someone else to ally with.
I mean, all I wanted this guy to do is stop illegal invaders and work to get rid of the trouble makers and make Britain great again.
From the article:
Farage made the comments after Donald Trump’s terror chief Seb Gorka said on Thursday that ISIS members in Syria should be allowed home...
“Gorka argues that if we and other European countries don’t take back these people and put them in prison here, they will get out of prison under the new Syrian regime, leading to a problem that in the end we may all have to fight,”
*******************
I don’t know - if they are in a Syrian prison now and allowed to leave they have a point. As much as I would hate to have my money take care of them in our prisons. I wonder how or if that would even work - can these terrorists be tried in our courts??
What value would having ISIS bride within its borders provide the UK? None. Ever.
The notion that allowing her back into the UK MIGHT prevent her from getting loose from Syria to commit acts of terrorism elsewhere is Bidenesque in its idiocy. Why fool would believe that Britain wouldn’t release the ISIS witch once she is in the country? Why even bother guarding against that possibility for her lieftime? It’s brutal, but the solution for this case is to put her out of our misery without further ado. The “Syrian allies” know how.
Elon had Nigel’s number when he went wobbly on Robinson. England needs a Trump and Nigel is a Pence.
It leaves out this part and gives a wrong impression it seems:
“Gorka argues that if we and other European countries don’t take back these people and put them in prison here”
And put in prison.
Gorka and Farage competing for maximum BoomerBrain retardation.
Even in the USA they won’t be in prison for long. And for the UK, Europe, Australia, Canada they won’t be in prison at all.
Whatever happened to “fight them over there, so we don’t have to fight them here” ?
Now we are going to bring them here ?
I have to admit having a degree of sympathy for women like her. After all, in the UK, even the most masculine man a woman can dream to find is roughly equal to Richard Simmons.
So they’re really in a bind - either take a British Man who doesn’t know which end of screwdriver to hold (much less a gun) or a REAL MAN from the Middle East.
He always was soft.
What Gorka said was that the EU countries should take back the ISIS expats and imprison them in their own countries
With Syria being taken over by ISIS and the Muslim Brotherhood, these fanatical and unrepentant ISIS terrorists will be set free in Syria to wage Jihad in other places Think that is a wise move
I believe that now.
Such logic could be used to allow anyone into any country.
and at any time.
I’ve met plenty of soft American men and I’ve met a lot of hard British men. Your stereotype is inaccurate.
“I’ve met plenty of soft American men and I’ve met a lot of hard British men. Your stereotype is inaccurate.
If that were true the UK would still be British.
Britain is dead, done.
They lack the courage to do the necessary.
The story of Shamima Begun is along these lines.
For starters she made a bad decision at the age of 15 when I was 15 what did I do, what did you do when you were 15.
Next when she got to Turkey with two other teenage girls to join ISIS she was smuggled into to join ISIS by some guy who worked for Canadian Intelligence.
And good lord “Five Eyes” who does Canadian Intelligence ultimately work for our own “Deep State” CIA.
How about we meet her halfway... and put her in Gitmo?
I posted this already but as Peter Hitchens noted what did we do when we were 15 years old? Heck I was just getting off paint thinners back then.
But her lawyers found out that this girl and her friends got smuggled in to join ISIS from Turkey by a Canadian Intelligence operative.
Who Does Canadian Intelligence Ultimately Work For In “Five Eyes” our own CIA, MI6 in the UK etc. etc.
