From the sun, https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/26147959/shamima-begum-cost-millions-legal-bills/ "Her fight to return home has already cost more than £250,000 in legal aid, with experts estimating that could hit as much as £7million if she now takes her case to the Supreme Court. Paul Fulcher of The Legal Costs Experts told The Sun: “I can see this reaching £7million. “It can only get higher with the way this case it going. It’s a huge cost to the taxpayer.”" From your link, which is from 2022 so costs will have risen, "Legal experts believe that the cost of the case – in which Begum received legal aid – has already cost more than £2million.' The text you're quoting I don't see in your link, which would be impossible anyway since your link is from 2022. Your article has been updated a few days ago, but nowhere does it say what has been updated.

Opinion: The Case Against Israel Rests on Lies
stevenl replied to Social Media's topic in The War in Israel
That's because of the reasoning the Hamas attack happened in a vacuum and should be seen as unprovoked and the start of the war. If it is placed in context one is labeled a vile Hamas supporter and anti-Semite. -
Those disgraceful politicians you refer to, and I remember this case well, had first-hand knowledge of what this misfit did. They stated at the time, if the British public had access to the information that they had, nobody would be giving her an ounce of sympathy. This information was held by the judges at her hearing, hence many things were redacted, and a closed judgement issued for national security reasons. This included participating and witnessing decapitation of aid workers, and she said at the time when ISIS was flying high that she was totally unfazed by it. Furthermore, at the time, it was known that she was in a high position in the equivalent of the Women's morality ' police force ' set up to ensure all were following ISIS twisted version of Shariah law, again something she participated in willingly. So all you bleeding hearts on AN can do one! They should put themselves in the position of the families, and reserve their outpourings of sympathy for the of murder of innocent civilian aid workers, not a disgusting creature like this. What she did supporting ISIS, she did knowingly and willingly, and this continued well into adulthood. She only played the victim, claiming she was trafficked when the tide of the war turned. She wasn't trafficked, she overcame many obstacles to get there and join them, well she can bloody stay there. Her own parents had begged her not to go and join them, which she and her two friends took no notice of. All totally unimportant in relation to the legal decision to revoke her citizenship. Morality and legality don't always match.
