UK rights drama now more gripping than any Christmas TV special.
LONDON – The Shamima Begum saga continues with all the drama of a prime-time soap, but significantly more paperwork. The European Court of Human Rights has yet again declined to deliver a decisive ruling, leaving the UK public in suspense and the tabloids in ecstasy. Government officials maintain that they are vexploring all procedural nuances” while the average citizen explores the emotional cost of keeping up with the story.
Surveys suggest that 73% of Britons follow the case with mild horror, 21% with mild delight, and 6% have started betting on how many letters it will take to conclude the affair. One official commented, “Legal clarity is for amateurs. We prefer the tension.” The Home Office confirmed that delaying decisions is considered a form of civic engagement, adding, “Drama builds character.”
