PRCBC is profoundly disappointed at the latest news that the appeal of Shamima Begum – a young British woman, trafficked to Syria when still a schoolgirl – against the Home Secretary’s decision to strip her of her citizenship has been dismissed. This perpetuates an appalling decision of the Government that is deeply divisive and undermines the shared citizenship rights of all British people, though clearly and wrongly in ways that have serious racially unequal impact.
We remain committed to the citizenship rights of all young British people and to removing the many barriers to their full and equal enjoyment of these rights in the country to which they belong.
