Immigration Bill: Terror suspects may lose citizenship

The home secretary is seeking powers to strip terror suspects of UK citizenship even if it leaves them stateless.

The amendment to the Immigration Bill could see naturalised citizens whose conduct is deemed "seriously prejudicial" lose their nationality.

People with dual nationality can already lose their British passports.

Home Secretary's Theresa May's last-minute addition to the list of about 50 government amendments to the Immigration Bill would not apply to people born in UK.
