Question Time audience member UK 'tolerant' of terrorists
A BBC Question Time audience member was applauded last night after attacking the suggestion that Shamima Begum, who left the UK to join ISIS, should be allowed back into Britain.
Home Secretary Sajid Javid announced on Wednesday that Ms Begum will be stripped of her UK passport. The Government claims she is also entitled to a Bangladeshi passport, thus won’t be made stateless. However the Bangladeshi foreign minister has firmly denied that Ms Begum is a national.
Referring to the ISIS recruit the audience member commented: “She went out there, with a group that wreak havoc on our streets and whether you like it or not she helped or supported them.
“Now if we allow her back what does that tell other future terrorists?
“You can wonder out there, come back and create havoc here and it will be fine.
“We’re very tolerant. Tolerant or stupid?”
Ms Begum left the UK to join ISIS in 2015, when she was a 15-year-old schoolgirl.
