Show Notes

Today, the Court of Appeal ruled that Shamima Begum – the young woman who, 9 years ago, left the UK to join the Islamic State – has lost her appeal against the government's decision to strip her of her British citizenship. Nicholas, Charlie and Helena gather for this emergency podcast to discuss the implications of this decision, how the courts deal with statelessness, and what options remain for a woman seemingly condemned to spend the rest of her life in refugee camps.
