I find myself increasingly disturbed by the actions of our Government. Being tough on terrorists is one thing but stripping people of their citizenship is not a proportional or reasonable punishment.
During the dark days of the second world war, when Britain was in mortal danger, only four people were stripped of citizenship. Theresa May has denaturalised more than four times that number of in the last three years alone. Now she wants to increase the state's power further by consigning British-only citizens she deems undesirable to statelessness.
