Is she safer in a refugee camp in northern Syria or in London? Asking mainly because q/o chances a shoo-in, she's got enemies in this country and health hazards where she is and at 23 she's DDP gold if things go badly wrong! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-64731007 Cross posting to her own thread.

Imelda 637 Posted February 23, 2023 I wonder how much motivation the Kurds will have to feed her now she's effectively lost her status as a bargaining chip. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is just…not how that works. Presidents, and certainly not billionaires with no title, cannot grant citizenship by fiat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regardless of the mechanics, if they are so keen for her to be removed from her current status give her asylum or citizenship in the US. Multiple governments have refused to let her back to the UK which I would wager is supported by the bulk of the British public. The Chuckle Brothers across the pond should stop interfering in the decisions of other governments. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
