take her to your house

Ok with his money he can pay fot it

Last time I looked we were a country run by the rule of law.i hold no brief for her but if she’s entitled to legal aid what’s wrong with that?We keep saying we are better than ISIS so let’s prove it.

On the side of the terrorist again, will he ever change?

Hope this scutter arse never makes PM

While Corbyn's understanding of international politics is typically lacking, this is one issue he is correct on. Removing somebody's citizenship and denying them due process, or access to legal aid, is deeply immoral and can't be allowed, no matter what they are accused of.

باطل مثال كيف تتعامل الدول المتحضرة للحفاظ علي حقوق الإنسان من أن الفرد المعني أخل بكل قوانين البلاد والتحق بالعدو، ونحن نسجت باليمين علي ذمه تحقيق انهضوا_الموت_واحد

Truth is coming soon about all matter. How many Criminals are Involve.

The reader’s comments on this article are every bit a deluded and hateful towards their own country as I would expect.

He would wouldn't he .He's got no morals or a sense of right & wrong ( only that he's right all the time)

Labour left, trying to score with immigrants in the u.k

MY GOD HES TOTALLY LOST IT

Well 🖕 him....

I think we should hold a referendum and let the people decide. And after it’s been held we can just ignore the result. Democracy in action.

Yes he would- she’s a terrorist!

Defenders of terrorism & terrorists

Mistake. He will regret it.He has lost my vote. 50 years a Labour voter and a Trade Union member for 50 years.

he would... tit!

quite right too. Due Process is vital otherwise we have no working judicial system do we. And if she's found guilty, she will be punished as per the law. Can't see what the problem is here.

Jeremy Corbyn will bend over backwards to support all kinds of terrorists

This is not to defend Begum as an individual case but to ensure scrutiny of the government. Legal aid is needed due to its conplexity

It's one of the rare occasions I agree with Corbyn. We have a legal process in the UK & if a politician removes the citizenship of an individual leaving her stateless, what is wrong for our legal system to challenge this? We are a democracy & government decisions need scrutiny.

He will be complaining next about not enough money for NHS and education!

Polls: Labour gaining support increasing lead over the Tories Corbyn: hold my Quinoa...

jeremycorbyn no offense ! Everyone deserves a second chance but I think you’ve heard it “what is dead may never die” if she comes back people who fought for her should pay for the surveillance not the British government or taxpayers money!

jeremycorbyn she has legal rights? She left Britain to kill British people ! To remove the idea of British constitution!😂 you can take her back but you need to look out for her personally for the rest of her life to make sure nothing goes wrong again! Go fight for her rights!

Justice for all was not the ideology she signed up to when she transferred her allegiance to another 'state'. Ask her and she is still likely to say that Sharia law is the law. Now suddenly she wants to exploit our law.

Leave her to rot in Syria.

Corbyn defends the rights of another terrorist an enemy of the Uk it's the only constant in his laughable political career. I stand with soldier F CorbynIsAnEmemyOfTheUK

This man has all of his priorities wrong.

i am willing to support her return only if she will live with Jeremy Corbyn.

A country ruled by law and not histrionics, clicbait and electioneering dogma. It's a beautiful thing.

Gov't have already allowed hundreds of Isis fighters back into UK without a peep from anyone. Sajid Javid played to the crowd with Shamima Begum case & the more folk got riled up the more the media ran with it! PoliticalGameplay

Even Shamima Begum is innocent unless stated otherwise by court decision.

Can I get legal aid to sue the government for not leaving the EU completely and in a timely manner?

Begum is either a traitor or an enemy, full stop!

A vote loser that one - betting even from Labour voters. Most of us can't get legal aid even on a low income.

Justice is open and should be available to all. Not just the people we like.

SHOCK SCANDAL HORROR SHAME! Corbyn agrees with government.

I'm shocked 😲

If there's a side to take Jezza will be on the one against this country VoteLabour 🤣

shamina begum and her ilk hate and despise what corbyn stands for yet he defends her , pc do gooders never cease to amaze
