She does and has somewhere to go, forget where

No she doesn't. The authority on who qualifies for Bangladeshi citizenship is (surprise surprise) Bangladesh, and they've confirmed she's not eligible for, and she certianly doesn't currently have, Bangladeshi citizenship.

The UK government is claiming she does because they know it's illegal to make someone stateless and if they follow their own laws they can't strip her of her citizenship.

They've come out and said this very thing. Why the fuck should we wash our hands of her and dump her on someone else?

The French do it to us everday.

Did she? OK then giver her a trial and convict her for it.

She is theoretically awaiting trial in Syria where her crimes were committed….

I've never felt the need to join a banned terrorist organisation so I've never felt my human rights have been infringed.
She deserves all the shit that is being flung in her direction.
I'm sure that all the aid workers ( who were there voluntarily to give aid and help) would have liked their rights to have been observed by her and her evil cohorts .
They got their heads chopped off instead.

I’m not sure how anyone knows what she deserves without a proper trial. Javid might do if he’s privy to additional information, not sure personally still what that could be that didn’t apply to others too though.

Apparently Bangladesh where she's never visited in her life

Well she can go make a life now,, short memories about what she said about the manchester bombing going on, revist her first couple of interviews when she wanted to come back, rot in hell

How can she have a proper trial? Any trial jury surely wouldn’t be impartial

She’d never visited the Caliphate before she moved there to live either.

Stop throwing logic into the mix.

True, but that’s the same with any high profile case. There’s vetting to try and at least get people most likely to only take into consideration what they hear during the trial.

Either way though, was thinking more around the access to evidence rather than the potential outcome.

Which throws up an easy solution. She surrenders to Syrian authorities for a full trial, serves the appropriate punishment in Syria and once this sentence is complete, she can apply to return to the UK.

Of course, her crimes will lead to the death penalty in Syria, so she should receive the appropriate amount of sympathy as any other British citizen would facing the death penalty in America, Asia or between.
