Snivelling Jihadi Jack claims he ‘never felt British anyway’ and moans he’ll never see his parents again after citizenship ban

JIHADI Jack has claimed he doesn't care that his British citizenship has been revoked as he "never felt British anyway."

The Brit-Canadian ISIS fighter was stripped of his British passport by former home secretary, Sajid Javid with his parents branding the Tory MP a "coward".

Real name Jack Letts, the 24-year-old left a plush middle class life to join ISIS in Syria, but was captured by Kurdish forces as the terrorist caliphate collapsed.

After being captured, he meekly pleaded to be allowed back to his Oxfordshire home saying he had "no intention of blowing up Britons."

'IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL'

In an interview with ITV from his prison cell, it was revealed to Letts for the first time that he was no longer a British citizen.

But the Muslim convert said he "wasn't surprised," and insisted that he had "always felt more Canadian," reasoning that he had visited Canada seven times.

He said: "I'm not surprised, I was expecting something like this to be honest.

"I've been here for two-and-a-half years and the British Government has not helped me at all.

"Even if they didn't strip me of my citizenship, it's like I'm not a British citizen anyway.

"These things they have very little meaning to me, to be honest," he added.

"I don't think having British citizenship is a big deal."

The terrorist also insisted that he "never killed anyone in ISIS," and only fought against the Syrian regime.

He said that he missed his family back in Oxford, adding: "I've given up home of seeing them face-to-face."

He added that he'd like to speak to his parents on the phone, insisting that it had been "more than two years" since he'd heard his parent's voices.

PARENT'S FURY

His father John Letts, 58, insisted that interviews given by the jihadi were done so "under duress," but ITV insist that he was more than happy to speak on camera as he snubbed Britain.

His dad also challenged Sajid Javid's decision to strip Letts of his citizenship, asking him to explain his reasoning for "secretly" slashing the government's ties with his son.

The organic farmer, who is Canadian, told Channel 4: "Justice doesn't seem to be able to happen here.

"I thought we had the right to innocent until proven guilty, the right of a trial, the right of free speech.

"I think it's maybe Sajid that's a bit of a coward and in denial and naive, and obviously it's his last act (as home secretary) and he can move on and not have to even justify it.

The jihadi's Brit mum, Sally Lane has accused Javid of leaving her son hanging in "a legal black hole."

The 57-year-old said: "It was a real shock that your Government can do this to you without any form of redress or discussion or way of actually contacting Jack, given that he's being held incommunicado and has no access to a lawyer.

";Jack and other people are now in a legal black hole.

"I think Jack wants to come back to whatever country will take him."

SNUBBED BY CANADA

Sally Lane said she "screamed" at her terrorist son when she found out he had travelled to Syria and said: "How could you be so stupid? You will get killed. You will be beheaded."

John Letts says he begged his son to come home, telling him: "A father should never live to see his son buried."

He went on to accuse him of being a "pawn ... helping spread hatred, pain, anger, suffering and violence".

Letts was entitled to citizenship through his Canadian father John but was born in the UK and grew up in rural Oxfordshire with HIS organic farmer dad and British mum Sally.

The decision is said to have sparked fury in Ottawa as officials there say "he had very little to do with Canada."

Sources said the Canadian government had “gone berserk” at Britain ripping up Letts' passport.

Office of Public Safety minister Ralph Goodale said: “Terrorism knows no borders, so countries need to keep each other safe.

“Canada is disappointed the United Kingdom has taken this action to offload their responsibilities.”

It is thought the decision to revoke his citizenship was one of the last actions of Theresa May’s administration.
