So there is such a thing as bad publicity after all: had she kept her mouth shut she may well have been in the UK by now along with the other 400. Although those of a more cynical cast of mind than mine might ask cui bono? Perhaps it was all a set-up designed to provide stilts for the Home Secretary.

Unfortunately I suspect we will end up having to restore her passport etc but at least the Home Secretary has made how he feels about her clear, he could easily have kept quiet and done nothing.
What I do not fully understand is why she wants to return to a country that she seemingly has no positive feelings or respect for, bombing our innocent children regardless of their faith is fine in her dangerous warped little mind.
Being a cynic would it be for the relatively cushy lifestyle she would have here in comparison to what she has had with her ISIS husband and what she has now, not to mention all the benefits she and her child would get in the future.

My guess would be that this is a classic case of the Home Secretary knowing full well that this decision will be overturned by a court - but that is a more preferable option than to not have done it in the first place.

"Mr Javid told MPs earlier this week that more than 100 dual nationals had already lost their UK citizenship after travelling in support of terrorist groups."
Where was the outcry over those who have already lost their citizenship, maybe they were not being promoted as a poor brainwashed child now woman by the bleeding hearts brigade.

The difference in this case is that Ms Begum doesn't have dual nationality so effectively is stuck in Syria who want to see the back of her. Javid knows the decision will be overturned but he has cleverly struck a chord with the public close to a likely leadership election.

Courtesy of the Times (Didn't take him long to backtrack)
Sajid Javid appeared to backtrack on his decision to strip Shamima Begum of her British citizenship after Bangladesh insisted there was “no question” of her being allowed into that country. Ms Begum, 19, said yesterday that the decision to revoke her British citizenship was “unjust” and she was “a bit shocked”. However, the foreign ministry in Dhaka said last night that she would not be allowed into Bangladesh because she had never been a dual citizen. Shamima Begum said that it was “kind of heartbreaking” to read that she had been stripped of her British citizenship by the Home Office.
The announcement was a setback for Mr Javid, who appeared to soften his stance by telling the ITV programme Peston that he would not leave an individual “stateless”. He told the programme: “I’m not aware of any home secretary in any party in any previous government that has taken a decision that would leave anyone stateless . . . I’m not going to talk about an individual, but I can be clear on the point that I would not take a decision and I believe none of my predecessors ever have taken a decision that at the point the decision is taken would leave that individual stateless.”
At the refugee camp in Syria where The Times found her last week, Ms Begum: “I don’t know what to say. I am not that shocked but I am a bit shocked. It’s a bit upsetting and frustrating. I feel like it’s a bit unjust on me and my son.” Ms Begum gave birth at the weekend to her third child by a Dutch terrorist convicted in absentia. Her other children died of malnutrition and sickness. “It’s kind of heartbreaking to read,” she added. “My family made it sound like it would be a lot easier for me to come back to the UK when I was speaking to them in Baghuz. It’s kind of hard to swallow.”

Meanwhile, media-friendly Syrians and all-round good guys the 'White Helmets' have drawn the Advance to Go card. I wonder why Israel, having 'rescued' them, didn't offer safe haven:
