I think a terrorist like Shamima should be hanging from a rope.

Saying that, as Brit born and raised here, it brings me quite a bit of comfort knowing that I’m a lesser citizen than the natives since my parents are immigrants.

One law for the natives. One law for us foreigner-born cunts. Equal in citizenship? Like fuck we are.

I think it was a bit of a race to be honest. If Bangladesh revoked her citizenship first, the UK couldn’t have.

As a Brit-born to Brit parents, if I have gained, say, Irish citizenship (or Spanish, or Kenyan, whatever) then the UK could revoke my citizenship under the same rules. It’s the fact she had another citizenship that allowed them to do this at all.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure there are some horrible racist pieces of shit who would see it as you’ve described, but I don’t think this is one of them.

She has never had bangladeshi citizenship. She in theory could apply for it through being a descendent of citizens but they wouldn’t give it. You can’t revoke something that never existed. Britain made her stateless.

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
