Update treason laws to protect the British public from terrorists.

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

As the fall of Isis is happening we're now facing a huge flow of known terrorists and terrorist supporters in to the UK, endangering the British public. We are asking for the UK treason laws to be revised to stop all know terrorists or terrorist supporters from entering the UK.
The case of Shamima Begum has clearly highlighted the publics opinion that she shouldn't return, yet there's no clear law to stop terrorists and their supporters from coming to the UK.
