...Therefore if this woman has the right under Bangladeshi law to its citizenship (whether or not she has, or wants to, exercise that right), she isn’t stateless and the Home Secretary can deprive her of UK citizenship. As I understand she is entitled to Bangladeshi citizenship because her mother is a Bangladeshi citizen. Ergo she is not stateless...
Being able to apply for Bangladeshi citizenship, as opposed to being a Bangladeshi citizen are two different things.
If she doesn't already have Bangladeshi citizenship then revoking her British citizenship makes her stateless.
If she applies for Bangladeshi citizenship and they refuse her application then she's stateless.
If she doesn't apply for Bangladeshi citizenship then she's stateless.
It's most likely she's coming back.
The more important question is what to do with all these 'returnees'?
There's already around 450 in the UK and only 40 to 50 have been prosecuted.
