UK should take back British members of ISIS in Syria, Trump’s counter-terrorism chief said

(LBC) Sebastian Gorka told LBC that he isn’t “telling the UK what to do,” but that any “serious ally of the US” should be committed to counter-terrorism to protect the so-called special relationship between the UK and US.
