Revoke UK citizenship of those posing a threat, even if it makes them stateless.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Many UK citizens have travelled abroad to knowingly join terrorist and other organisations who pose a clear and significant threat to the safety and security of the UK. That threat does not end with their return. They should be permanently barred from re-entry, even if it renders them stateless.
Those who share the ideology of groups like ISIS are beyond rehabilitation and cannot be reasoned with. They present a continuing danger and we have a right to be protected from them.
