ISIS bride Shamima Begum, who fled the UK to Syria aged 15, has been stripped of her British citizenship.

Home Secretary Sajid Javid ordered the move against the 19-year-old Londoner who wants to return to the UK with her newly-born child as the so-called caliphate crumbles.

She was part of a trio of girls from Bethnal Green Academy to travel to the war-torn nation to support the terror group in February 2015.

as she's a citizen there as well. Not having any regret for joining her country's enemies is what did her in. Fuck her.

I don’t have a lot of sympathy for her.
