Sadly it's a moot point as it won't stand up to international law. You cannot make someone stateless and by refusing them entry you are doing that no matter what Cameron says about refusing the entry being different to removing their passport. Imagine if any country we tried to deport someone to just said they were not allowing them entry so we had to keep them... the Daily Mail would have a field day with that.
They can and they have with Mohamed Sakr, Bilal al Berjawi and Mahdi Hashi and 13 more or so others in the past few years.

If they’re not in here Britain radicalising British Muslims, that’s a start. Take Abu Qatada, who is seen as a radical with extreme views in Britain, back in Jordan, he’s just one of many bitter old men ranting about the West, a nobody.

You talk about the manpower to keep tabs on them when they are here, well surely we need just that amount of manpower if not more to decide whether they went to Syria to fight for IS or for another reason which maybe completely innocent like they have family or friends or business there or are we just going to say "if you're a darkie and you went to Syria you're a problem"?
Like I mentioned above, they already have such a system in place, under section 40 of the British Nationality Act and the clause 60 of the Immigration bill, they can revoke individuals citizenship and leave them stateless if it is "conducive to the public good" on the grounds of their involvement in acts of terrorism and war crimes.

How much of taxpayers money and personnel was used just to monitor the movements and communication of Abu Qatada or Abu Hamza al-Masri? If you keep them out, then they can’t commit atrocities here. They’ve made known their hatred of the West and the British way of life, so we’ll do them the favour of not letting them back in to Britain. Also rather than de-radicalising, deal with the root of the problem and get rid of the radicals.
The radicals aren't the "root of the problem".

But it is the radicals that preach the totalitarian ideology of world domination and a mandate that all Muslims to follow the doctorine of eternal war against non-believers through Jihad. We can't erradicate the ideology, but we can start with the radicals.

For every radical "eradicated" another two are bred. Islamism is going through a massive growth period, because it's been allowed to by the useful idiots of the pc-left. But that's just in this country. The neo-cons' of the right (amongst whom I counted myself) got it wrong too with a foreign policy of liberal intervention and nation-building. In hindsight, and it really is a wonderful thing, we should have kept our nose out. Do nothing at home, Islamism breeds. Do something abroad, Islamism breeds. Now the problem is in the inverse. If we do something at home, we compromise our liberal ideology, if we do nothing abroad, IS spreads. Islamism is an ingenious meme, Sayyid Qutb out strategised the west.

Lol, reduce a country to rubble, and then spend the following years blaming the inhabitants for their own misfortune

Anyway - hopefully if they do remove the citizenship for people living abroad, who involve themselves in war and terror - we could finally tell Mark Thatcher to fvck off

Or would the law only apply to Muslims

Incidentally, Tony Blair has just received the GQ Men of the Year Award for Philanthropy, you may as well honour Jimmy Savile a lifetime award for contributions to childrens charities.

I have a solution that WILL work.

Every nation get rid of it's borders so that way nobody can leave or enter any country.

The whole land mass that is split into various countries should be renamed 'land'.

This would mean there are no more immigrants at all.

Nobody would be forced to live next to anyone they don't like.

Nationalism will disappear overnight.

Flags to be outlawed and destroyed.

This way there will be no Iraq or Syria for anyone to go to and there would be no Britons going there to fight

It's a win win for all!
