I was flicking through channels and came across the above cretin and suddenly realised his line of interview. He is arguing the case for Shamima Begum to be banned from coming back to the UK which is currently the courts decision. he is actually saying that she knew exactly what she was doing at 15 yrs old
And stood beside her “ husband “ whilst he carried out atrocities. He implies she should have left and not be part of all thieve terrible atrocities. The former ambassador of the USA was interviewed and said that she should come back BUT if it is known she committed any crimes she should be tried by Syria as most victims seemed to come fro there. Morgan’s technique seems to be ignoring what others say and keep banging on about how bad she is in particular and then he tries to link her decision to go at 15 yrs old and the decision in Scotland of the same being able to decide their own sexuality. There is no link between the 2 and he just seems someone who tries any argument to back his views. Can’t believe what I’ve just seen and to be clear I have no opinion on Shamima Begum………until I heard this idiot. 6 LRs last one 2009 HSE D3.

Clearly you have not had much experience of teenagers - they know it all as soon as they are actually teenagers, especially in these days of Google.
Personally, I doubt if she will remain much, if any of a threat as the security services will follow/monitor her every move, but unfortunately at much cost to us.
Much as I can't stand the cretinus morgan I suspect a great many will quietly agree with him.
Maybe, they could just lock the pair of them up together & throw away the key.

I actually have 4 grown up children so pretty much know how cretinous they can be as well 
You are probably right about the great British public but it was just his constant banging on and ignoring others views which annoyed me. He has a high profile so is perfectly aware of what he is saying.
Anyhow, I’ve now passed on him so on to the next annoying cretin  6 LRs last one 2009 HSE D3.

That's Piers Morgan's MO - shout anyone down that disagrees with him. And if they can't be shouted down then just ignore them and repeat your own position ad nauseam.
It's the "bully interviewer" MO. Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

.....and some people will form the same opinion of their own accord not because Piers Morgan, or anybody else, has influenced them.
I don't want her to be allowed back to live off the UK taxpayer, watched or otherwise.

I'm ambivalent about her. Part of me thinks that she is a victim of those that radicalise others, especially as she was still only a child at the time: I don't think we should demonise victims. And then part of me thinks "WTF did you think was going to happen, you idiot?"
I doubt she'd present a risk to the UK if she was allowed back in but, as said, someone would need to keep an eye on that and there is a cost associated with that.
But I still think Piers Morgan is an odious individual. Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

If a white 15 year old British middle class girl was groomed and trafficked to Syria for sexual exploitation, one wonders how the right wing media would have reported on it.
Piers Morgan’s MO is to be the King of television shock jocks. That so many people lap up his bigotry is the reason why he still appears on our screens. 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

or is 'sexual exploitation' the excuse to justify it? She seemed pretty ambivalent until it may be the ace card to get back to UK.
Quite similar echoes to all the people claiming whatever needed to remain in UK once here when at risk of deportation

If you have time, you might find this enlightening as to what some of these girls/women went through.
https://giwps.georgetown.edu/wp-content/up...e-West.pdf
There was definite sexual exploitation - being passed around groups of men for nothing other than being used for sex.
Of course, these girls didn't sign up for that - they thought they were going to some utopian environment thanks to the grooming that was undertaken to persuade them to go there in the first place. Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

I guess it all depends on if you believe that a 15 year old girl whose parents were immigrants and who at the time felt that she didn’t belong or fit in, could be radicalised, recruited, transported, transferred, harboured and received in Syria for the purposes of ‘sexual exploitation’ and ‘marriage’ to an adult male, or not.
It would certainly be easier, cheaper and I suspect popular with this government’s supporters to banish her.
It is for us as individuals to decide if that’s the morally correct thing to do. It doesn’t sit comfortably with me and I’m concerned that it could set a precedent for the children of other immigrant parents.
Given what she has been thorough, not least the fact that she has given birth to three babies none of whom have survived, I don’t believe she’s in a mentally fit state to comment or defend herself. 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

And imagine the uproar if she did something from another (hostile) country to attack the UK in some form or another. Possibly as revenge,
One could argue that it is safer to have her in the UK being tagged and tracked etc. I think I would.  2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

And imagine the silence if she came back and did nothing....

Both sides of the story are if's and maybe's really but why would you 'risk' it.
Allow her in and then who's next on the list of 'not quite so bad'? OK to accept females but not males as they pose more of a threat, have 'all' of them here so they can be watched, what is 'The Answer'?
The group of girls who went were (supposedly) all into radicalised thinking (groomed or just believed it?), watching beheading video's, sharing them, members of multiple radical/illegal groups, etc. If they had remained they could have done atrocities on home soil, as others have.
I'm not the one having to make the decisions or live with any consequences but, based on what I think I know, I don't want her here and can see no reason to accept the 'PR' being spun around her
