Bangladesh says IS teen not their citizen in dispute with UK | Sky News AustraliaThe UK government has risked a diplomatic rift with Bangladesh over the fate of Islamic State recruit Shamima Begum.\n\nThe Home Office has stripped the 19-year-old of her British citizenship to dash her hopes of returning to the UK to raise her baby son, who she recently gave birth to in Syrian refugee camp.\n\nAlthough he has not commented directly on the case, Home Secretary Sajid Javid seemed to confirm on Wednesday the government felt able to take such action because she is a dual national or has the right to citizenship elsewhere.\n\nUnder international law, it is illegal for a country to make someone stateless by removing their citizenship.\n\nShamima Begum is believed to be a dual British-Bangladeshi national, although her family's lawyer has said the UK-born teenager of Bangladeshi heritage has never had a Bangladeshi passport and is not a dual citizen.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n JaneMarwick Not 'Isis Bride'.

Outrage over sick asylum seekers being sent to Christmas Island | Sky News AustraliaThe Greens and Independent MPs have reacted furiously to revelations that sick refugees offshore will be sent to Christmas Island, not mainland Australia. \n\nPrime Minister Scott Morrison announced the reopening of Christmas Island as a response to the medivac bill passing the Senate last week. \n\nThe Home Affairs Department confirmed refugees from Manus and Nauru will not be flown to Australia in a majority of cases, under the new laws passed by Labor, the Greens and the Crossbench. \n\nThe decision has prompted outrage from the Greens, which argues the arrangement does not reflect the will of parliament. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n 'Growing up in Mayo I witnessed many dairy farms close which my father did nothing about.'

Christmas Island is a 'clever' loophole: Kenny | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Kenny says if politicians who supported the medivac bill wanted to haul people to Australia for medical treatment and not Christmas Island, they should’ve ruled it out in the amendments.\n\nMr Kenny explains that while the island is part of Australia, it’s been excised from the nation’s migration area, which means people on its shores can’t appeal for asylum or access the legal system to press their claim.\n\nHis remarks come after independent MP Kerryn Phelps tweeted outrage over the government’s decision to send the sick to Christmas Island, describing it as a 'subversion of our entire model of representative democracy.'\n\nMr Kenny says the government found a clever way to adhere to the law they opposed.\n\n\n Who is this Chris man? Does he have any credibility...ah nope !!! And here I was being a cynic and thinking it was about medical care and not about getting into Aus 🤭
