Shamima Begum

[Mr Kobayashi]

bless. pot/kettle.

How can you tell I'm miserable? I'm not the one moaning in this thread.

As I don't need a public hate figure to make myself feel better isn't it less likely that I'm miserable?

Under Bangladeshi law anyone born by parents born in Bangladesh is Bangladeshi automatically. She had a dormant dual citizenship so it doesn't matter what Begum or Bangladesh says. International law has not been broken in this case.

That's not entiirely true, because dual nationality is illegal under Bagladeshi law.

According to Sabrina Zarin, of FM Associates , a leading Law Firm in Dhaka and Chittagong, Bangladesh.

Her UK citizenship means that she would have to apply to the Bangladeshi Gov't for leave to have dual citizenship, which she has never done ( according to the Bangladeshi Gov't).

She didn't have Bangladeshi nationality, she has a tenuous link to Bangladeshi nationality through a parent or grandparent, I don't know which.
Much the same as the English lads who end up playing for the Republic of Ireland football team.
If I'm not mistaken, the Bangladeshi government have refused to recognise any entitlement she might have to Bangladeshi nationality.
So that makes her as British as you, me or anyone else with a British passport.
The British government can't just wash her hands of her.
A case in some international court would be interesting.

Does she have a valid British passport I'm not so sure, If the Bangladeshi Government can wash their hands of her (which would be interesting in some international court) why can't the British Government if they deem her a threat to other British subjects.

If she is from Yarkshire, no wonder she left to join ISIS....
;- ))

Aren't Yorkshire folk supposed to be tight? She is anything but tight that one.

Whichever new turn this 'discussion/ argument' has taken, I'm just glad the shitty 'don't want my taxes' dickhead position has been fucked off!!

Now we're just left with the nationality desperation, which has been shredded to pieces!

I'm just waiting for the next cringeworthy take...

Worst thread on the forum this, apart from maybe the religion one

As a taxpayer I'd rather not pay for bombs sold to other countries, paying for fraudulent firms that are pally with the Gov and subsidising big business to fleece me.

But bringing back a silly girl to charge her is pushing the boundaries of decency...?

The mindset of people on this thread that have this argument against the woman, based upon the above, is beyond crazy.

Not sure why I can't respond directly but I think you'll find, hilts, I was responding to the few arguments about not wanting taxes spent on Begum.

If only you read a few pages before to get the context...

It's not about having a passport. She has never been a Bangladeshi citizen.
You don't cease to be a citizen of a country just because your passport expires.

It’s because he didn't actually post anything, just quotes, so there is nothing for the forum software to grab for the reply.
