Was Teresa May right to revoke this persons passport?

Who can we believe the Government, the Judges, or E2 9 ? (the man's name has been withheld for security reasons)

Seems to me that I doubt that the authorities would revoke this man's passport for bl**dy minded reasons, yet the man involved will of course say he has been unfairly treated, who knows?

some are going to say this smacks of totalitarianism - however if Ms May thinks he shouldn't come back, then so be it. Can we get rid of some of the other undesirables that pervade this country
The article shifts between depriving him of his second nationality (British) which the Home Secretary can lawfully do so long as he has one to fall back on (he does)

and withdrawing his passport ( which may or may not involve taking his nationality away )

I dont know if having a passport is a right or a privilege - if the latter she can do that.

Gareth Pierce was being a bit fruity - exile was outlawed by the Magna Carta in 1215. but I imagine she is paid to say these things

AOG is getting a bit liberal in his old age innit ?
Internal exile was still used in the 70s. A number of Irishmen were banished from the UK mainland and sent back to N Ireland
