Nigel Farage said Andy Burnham’s comments about potentially rejoining the EU had given him “the biggest boost in [his] career”. We look at why — even if it seems counter-intuitive — another Brexit debate could actually hurt Farage.

Before the Brexit referendum, a whole bunch of MPs explained to Britain how the economy would collapse post-Brexit. While Brexit hasn’t yet happened, some did say that the destruction would take place immediately after the vote; which didn’t exactly happen as expected. So in this video, we explain what’s happened and why the economy hasn’t done too badly in the end.

There is no question on Begum's case that she should not be allowed back to the UK, not much difference from a spy chooses to work for a hostile state at war. Worse still she was prepared to give birth and bring up children to die for the hostile state. This is a really bad example to make your case.

Surely dual citizens loyal to this country can easily avoid these problems simply by renouncing their allegiance to the foreign power? Of course it would also help to obey our laws so there's no cause for deprivation of citizenship.

As with most things that governments try to do (I know, I speak as a former Whitehall Civil Servant) this bill is a clumsily planned mess. However, I have to sympathise with the government's aims. The situation with illegal immigrants swarming over the Channel in unsuitable boats from a safe country like France to claim the right to live here is absurd, especially as many bring with them the habits, cultures and religion that made their home countries such dangerous places in the first place.
And this video is leaving out key parts of the truth in simply saying that Shamima Begum ran away to join ISIS aged 15 but has since denounced them.
She was still an ISIS supporter, married to one of its fighters, after she became an adult and had literally seen a basket of severed heads of people they had executed and was aware that they held Yazidi women literally as slaves, used for sex. She knew very well by then what ISIS were like. Even after ISIS was defeated and she was captured, Shamima Begum initially insisted that the ISIS inspired mass murder of predominantly teenaged girls at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester was justified.
Only once it was clear that ISIS could not help her did Shamina B start saying she did not support them after all and could she come back to Britain, please?

Was not aware that there had been an update on the laws. This makes it extremely explicit? AND…. that… those who "processes" fake immigration records, and does not under the British laws, but sells visas or opportunities that the individual could be in the UK, is going to be prosecuted from this as well. Just as I thought…. Well, this is going to help those overseas students then. Especially the ones that do not qualify to be here as well. This adds to THEIR position. No wonder China locked down and threw away the key basically.

Very good bill, it should be applied decades ago. Britain is for British people. You should not have been here from the first place. Stop destroying our culture in the name of your far left political correct ideology. We are so tired of you’ll. Go to muslims countries with your common culture, NOT HERE, let’s see how they will welcome you… Europe is beginning to awaken from its “humanistic innocence”.

Deprivation of citizenship is a dangerous idea. I'm not usually a fan of slippery slope arguments, but even the possibility of of creating a situation where a government could remove "undesirables" or political opponents can't be allowed.
@ems7623

Taking away citizenship is something that, historically, only the worst authoritarian regimes and police states have done. The fact that this is even being considered in the UK should cause a great deal of concern.
In extreme cases of citizens who have done something like joining a foreign terrorist organization or, I don't know, sell nuclear secrets to enemy regimes, there are other, normal procedures that can be applied. These are situations that have always fallen, historically, under the legal category of "treason." If the UK no longer has treason laws that are working for its needs, then those are the laws that need to be revised.
It is good to see that at least on Tory MP is taking a stand against this.

I am not certain how this will be done, but something has to be done! There are some parts of the UK where you don´t hear a word of English. These people who come to the country aren´t looking to integrate themselves into the English culture, but to create ghettos, small ballons of their country inside the UK. Often this leads to religious extremism, arranged marriage, female genital mutilation and so forth.
I am Brazilian and I do live in London, even between Brazilians there is some feeling of anti-English being born and cultivated as "their culture". Also, there are a few people here speaking that rich people are bad and working-class people are "the good ones". Now, who is discriminating and judging here? How can, the amount of money someone has in the bank, define character?

UN is right to be outraged. Will we see all those religious & charitable bodies, & those that offer financial support, & resident relatives of all the refugees, be subject to life imprisonment? Not only outrageous but unworkable. There are currently too few prisons to house the criminal element in the UK. Poverty will increase crime. Lack of border control will increase crime. The UK is a smugglers paradise. Fewer workers due to Pandemic & Brexit means fewer Taxpayers, less Tax revenue, fewer tradesmen to build more prisons – pause for breath – in short, the domino effect.
