19:26Now PlayingForeign Secretary David Lammy has vowed that ISIS bride Shamima Begum will not be allowed back to Britain.
This comes after Trump's counter-terror chief Sebastian Gorka called for any 'serious ally' of the United States to commit to taking back citizens currently languishing in Syrian prison camps.
On Thursday the Foreign Secretary confirmed the Government had no plans to allow Begum, who left east London to join IS when she was 15, to return to the UK.
Mr Lammy told ITV's Good Morning Britain: "Shamima Begum will not be coming back to the UK. It's gone right through the courts. She's not a UK national.
"We will not be bringing her back to the UK. We're really clear about that."
Ali Miraj is joined by human rights lawyer Shoaib Khan as well as LBC callers to debate the status of Shamima Begum.
