Today's Video Focus: The Begum family in East London had lost a daughter to ISIS - now they
have lost their their grandchild to war and disease in Syria. For them
the death of baby Jarrah is a tragedy. For the Home Secretary it poses
difficult questions. Even members of his own party have criticised Sajid
Javid for stripping Shamima Begum of her British Citizenship. One
called it a populist gesture. But the politics of repatriation is only
going to get more complex with over a hundred unaccompanied minors
languishing in refugee camps.
Focus of the Day Article:
A high-powered body of experts has called for more detailed
evaluations of the government’s ambitious court modernisation programme,
