I don't think it's that unusual or is because she was of Bangladeshi heritage. You can't update
fundamental laws like that by just what's in the news cycle.
An Austrian friend of mine lost his citizenship because he joined the French Foreign Legion.
I looked it up and it's still the law and it's says explicitly even if it makes the person stateless.

@JWestland
I thought Bangladesh said already they won't grant her citizenship?
So I suppose UK law does not have anything written around that scenario, hence she not stateless in law. Which doesn't help her exactly.
Prevent didn't help much to tackle extremism (often caused by people feeling they have no voice/chance/are socially isolated see also QAnon), not much on OMG internet bad when this happened, it all feels like it's "well she is not OUR (the media/some groups) kind of Brit so banishment it is"
And doesn't that exactly feed into the sort of social division ISIS etc. want? Of course, that hurts Muslims but well, it is not that extremists -of any kind- care about "their own people"
