politician alexei navalny. shamima begum has lost an appeal against the removal of her british citizenship. in 2015 when she was aged 15, she left east london to travel to syria to join islamic state. her citizenship was revoked on the grounds of national security shortly after she was found in a refugee camp in 2019. she had argued the decision was unlawful because she was a victim of trafficking. it means she will now remain in syria, with no chance of returning to the uk. let's see the ruling in the court of appeal. in conclusion, for these reasons, we unanimously dismiss the appeal. it could be argued that the decision in ms begum's case was harsh. it could also be argued that ms begum is the author of her own misfortune.

but it is not for this court to agree or disagree with either point of view. our only task is to assess whether the deprivation decision was unlawful. we have concluded it was not and the appeal is dismissed. let's go live now to the court of appeal where we can speak now to our correspondent graham satchell. i think it is a very significant judgment, unanimouslyjudges and judgment, unanimously judges and court judgment, unanimouslyjudges and court of appeal. there were five grounds that the lawyers of shamima begum put to the court of appeal as part of their arguments to see that it unlawful that her british citizenship had been deprived. those grounds were dismissed completely today. it leaves shamima begum stack

in northern syria at the stage with no chance and no hope of returning back to britain. there was a complex legal discussion about why those grounds of appeal wouldn't wash. but as you heard in the final part of thatjudgment, they were not here making a moral case, whether it was right or wrong. 0nce making a moral case, whether it was right or wrong. once the home secretary within his rights to remove citizenship? they assess the arguments and said that he was. remind as if you can about the background of this case. shamima begum wasjust a child, 15 years old...

unexploded world war ii bomb is going to be removed this afternoon in a military convoy through the city and disposed of at sea. the area was of course bombed during world war ii because of the local navalactivities. it world war ii because of the local naval activities. it is not deemed safe to try to detonate this bomb in situ. it was... therefore the plan is now to remove it through the city. the obvious problem being that it is dangerous to do that. they have cordoned off a large area, the military, and also they are trying to evacuate people from houses and so on. quite a substantial number of properties, actually. 0ver so on. quite a substantial number of properties, actually. over 3000 people being displaced as this is going on. 0ver1000 properties being evacuated in orderfor going on. 0ver1000 properties being evacuated in order for this going on. 0ver1000 properties being evacuated in orderfor this ball to be removed and disposed of at sea. any residents of the devon city living within 300 metres of the convoy route has to evacuate their

home, so they are living quite a large area while this bomb is removed. it will be reviewed between 2pm 5pm this afternoon. about 3000 people are still away from their homes while this 300 metre exclusion zone is maintained, to keep the public safe. 0bviously zone is maintained, to keep the public safe. obviously it has been a source of enormous concern since it was discovered and reported this at 1030 but there appears to be a comprehensive plan to remove it. how long it will take to go in that convoyis long it will take to go in that convoy is not yet clear about their plan is to dispose of it at sea. the controlled explosion, as i said, could not happen, because it was considered to be not the safest option. we have been hearing from phil williams, superintendent from the police. and that is the situation. we are going to take you now to another story which has been happening today. and that is shamima

begum. she lost an appeal against the removal of her british citizenship. in 2015, she was aged 15 at that time, she left east london, she travelled to syria, to join islamic with two other young women of her age, girls. her citizenship was revoked on grounds of national security shortly after she was found in a refugee camp, this was in 2019. she argued that decision was unlawful because she was a victim of trafficking, because, the ib goes, she was only 15 at the time. because that request has not been upheld, it means she will now remain in syria with no chance of returning to the uk. this is not the end of the legal though. 0ur correspondence explains more. this was a devastating judgment this morning in the court of appeal and a huge victory for the home secretary and the british government. it does leave shamima begum are stacked in a

camp in northern syria. the lawyers of shamima begum gave five grounds for appeal, of shamima begum gave five grounds forappeal, including of shamima begum gave five grounds for appeal, including things like she was a child when she went to syria, just 15, that she had been trafficked and groomed and sexually exploited. and let down by parts of the british state, her school, local authority, and the metropolitan police. and the chiefjustice as he said that was not a material consideration, that those were breaches that may have happened but had not been proved to happen, and evenif had not been proved to happen, and even if they had happened, that was four years before her citizenship was removed. and there were other considerations like had she been let a stateless, because they had removed her citizenship? the high court here said that in 2019 she was technically could have been a bangladeshi citizen, so at the time there was nothing unlawful at the home secretary did. 0n

there was nothing unlawful at the home secretary did. on and on and on. as i say, a devastating judgment for shamima begum, and a huge victory for the home secretary. it will be difficult as things stand now to see what grounds there are four appeal to the supreme court. it is, as i say, a slam dunk if you like. every single thing that shamima begum's legal team put to the court, they rejected. you do have to have grounds for appeal. and we did speak to shamima begum's lawyer outside court. her legal team say they are considering what to do next, but actually the everyday direct appeal to the home secretary to bring shamima begum home, and the c button should do what other countries around the world are doing, which is repatriate the citizens who joined is, doing, which is repatriate the citizens whojoined is, put doing, which is repatriate the citizens who joined is, put them doing, which is repatriate the citizens whojoined is, put them on trial in their own countries and deal with them like that. it is difficult to see that that is what

the british government is —— will do,. we can now cross back to my theory have been hearing about an unexploded bomb which is due to be moved this afternoon. 0ur moved this afternoon. our understanding is that this bomb cannot be detonated in situ and has to be moved. yes, for the past few days disposal experts have been assessing the device and trying to analyse whether it is best to deal with it in situ or move it and detonate. what is unusual is a level of disruption this is because. it was first discovered, reported, on tuesday. and since then, three days on, around 3000 people have been asked to leave their homes. some have gone

to leave their homes. some have gone to friends and family, and this had been given temporary accommodation ljy been given temporary accommodation by the council in hotel rooms. during that time the experts have been analysing, assessing the device. and today they have given their decision, as you havejust heard a few moments ago, they have decided that the most risk option is to move the device and to detonate it out at sea. we have been told today that that will involve a journey by military convoy of around a mile and a half. they are asking people within a 300 metre area of that route to leave their homes by 2pm this afternoon. they anticipate that they hope people can return by five o'clock. massive operation about to start. huge operation to communicate this to local people who will be in that zone where the device will be transported, and asking them if they are still at home to leave windows open and to leave their properties. this has

caused massive disruption. 3000 people already haven't been able to be in their properties around where the device is, and now we are seeing that finally there could be some resolution to this. this will also affect transport. their main line train goes through along the route that has been marked out for this. that will be suspended while this operation takes place. the ferry services will also be suspended, and local bus routes. the myth during the second world war was and is home to large naval activities. —— plymouth during the second world war. that is these that was bombed. yes, thatis that is these that was bombed. yes, that is right. these devices do turn up that is right. these devices do turn up and peoples property now and again. i have covered these types of stories over the two decades or so i have lived in the city. what is unusual is this level of disruption, the amount of people who have had to be moved out of their properties.

and also the precautions they are taking. this route they are taking, asking people to leave their homes. but, yes, plymouth was heavily bombed because of the naval dockyard during the war. do we know anything about the bomb itself? yes. it is a 500 kilograms device. in its day it would have caused quite a lot of disruption. we understand it is about one metre wide and half a metre deep. it was discovered by a man actually if you days ago, he was digging in his back garden, he did not realise what it was at first. 0ver garden, he did not realise what it was at first. over the days, there was at first. over the days, there was at first. over the days, there was a lot of rain here, it slowly emerged, it became clear to him what it might be. you put on tuesday morning. authorities arrived and this swiftly sparked the declaration of a major incident. accord and was set up, 200 metres initially on tuesday. that resulted in 1200

people being affected. yesterday they decided to extend the corded father to carry out further tests on the device. as a result of that, in total 3000 people have had to leave their homes. for the community here a difficult and anxious time. they have had good support, i am told, by many of them, from the council. a rest centre was set up at a local leisure centre. around 300 people use that facility. some people are going to friends and family. and there staying in hotels. that hopefully, if all goes to plan, people will be able to retire later today. thank you. spending limits for online machines will be introduced. the garment has announced that from september and 25 shall have a limit of £2 maximum stake online, anyone over the age of 25 will have a limit of £5.

more than 10% of mps are calling for the resignation of commons speaker so lindsay hoyle. dozens of scottish national party and conservative mps want a vote on his future after sir lindsay allowed a labour amendment to a vote on gaza, going against parliamentary convention. he said he did it partly to protect mps safety. he does appear to be clinging onto hisjob he does appear to be clinging onto his job for now but there are considerable pressure on him and there is no that his authority has been reduced as a result of it. dozens of mps saying there no—confidence motion in him but there is no foreign mechanism to get rid of him. he would have to resign or his own back after pressure, but no sign of that yet. he repeated his apology to mps yesterday, acknowledging that he had made the wrong decision in allowing that labour motion to go ahead. but remember his justification was that

he wanted mps to be able to vote on the widest possible range of options, to express their views on the war in gaza, because it been mindful of pressure mps had been underfrom voters over mindful of pressure mps had been under from voters over their stance on gaza. this has triggered a wider debate about the issue of the safety of mps. so lindsay oil had destroyed some of things he had heard from mps is frightening. he said many serious examples of threats that they had faced either or online. it is a serious issue. a real issue. there have been a number of high—profile incidents recently. 0ne tory mp recently had protesters turn up at his house. there is a discussion this morning whether that should be allowed or not. another tory mp is standing down at the next election because of threats against him, and

his office was subject to an arson attack at the end of last year. it is a serious situation. 0ne proposal being put forward today by the government, seeing that police should be able to disburse protests outside mps houses, outside parliament, outside council buildings, all these sites trip to kil democratic process, but clearly there is some concern about going too far. so the balance between protecting mps safety and democratic right of voters to engage with mps, scrutinise mps, as well as being able to demonstrate in public places. the bollywood megastar, alia bhatt,
