Hide AdShe has been a very silly girl. She deserves a second chance. Maybe she can help the terrorist police with names/ information/intelligence regarding Isis and plans etc
Kath Gill
Too risky. How can you be sure she’s no longer a threat. it’s about time we got tough with these people. NO second chances.
Dave Cooper
No way she just looking for a easy life here cos no doubt the do gooders will welcome her with a house and every benefit going . It’s about time we looked after are own young people who work for a living and struggle to raise a family many on minimum wage
Sandra Rogers

Hide AdShe “joined” ISIS, she knew what she was doing.. she made her own bed and now she can lie in it!
Louise Swindells
She was 15yrs old and there is strong evidence she was groomed/radicalised by others.
Sophie Choudhury
Teens make mistakes, she’s clearly not very bright. But she shouldn’t be entitled to benefits or childbirth on the taxpayer tab for a sustained amount of time. She will be in debt to the NHS and have to pay back every penny of the birth.
Cat Hart
Those who travel abroad to fight in terrorist conflicts pose a threat to us all and need to be stopped

Hide AdHer unborn baby is so innocent in this, yes bring her home however they must be conditions, she must work closely with the government giving them intelligence and assisting them with whatever she has learnt over the few years she was over there
Helen Wright
It was her decision to leave so the answer is NO. We cannot allow this. Who in their right mind would want her as a neighbour?
Martin Wood
Pregnant teenager currently living in a refugee camp with no money wants to return to uk where healthcare and benefits are provided to all after being a member of ISIS. Can’t understand why she would want to do that?
Sean Reilly
Yes, but she needs to be locked up and her child removed from her care.
