I never agreed with letting convicted terrorists out but it was we were told part of the peace process. Presumably those released were at the point of release not seen as a risk to national security etcWhat happens with other British citizens that are terrorists? Loyalists, Irish Nationalists etc. They've been responsible for some horrific atrocities in the UK. Most of them got let out early and roam the streets of the UK today. Do we wait until they go abroad and then take their citizenship away? Arguably, by keeping her in Syria (or wherever she is) we cause ourselves more damage than waiting until she returns and going through the court process.
The cynic in me suggests the govt are likely to want this to happen.
