It's such good news.

I haven't seen any reporting that mentions she's been in this hell for five years because of Boris Johnson.

Fingers crossed.

Brilliant news. Delighted for her, Richard and Gabriella.

There are already two threads running on this.

@Thoosa

There are already two threads running on this.
Yes, but people are pleased and may not have seen the other threads.

It's going to be a long road to recovery, I reckon, but I'm delighted for them all.

Xpologog · 16/03/2022 10:46

Just hope her MH will recover. Sad for her parents left behind, knowing they’ll not see her again unless they can get out.

zafferana · 16/03/2022 10:47

This is fabulous news. I'm so happy for her and her family.

It's more the fault of the Iranians to be honest. Also Johnson hasn't been PM for five years even if it was his fault.

As foreign secretary he implied she had been spying on Iran and it's widely agreed that this set back her release.

He was Foreign Secretary when he made those stupid comments about her training journalists in Iran.

Sundancerintherain · 16/03/2022 10:51

Fantastic news .

Justcallmebebes · 16/03/2022 10:53

Absolutely brilliant news.

Re: reporting about Johnson's blunder in saying in parliament that she was training Iranian journalists, this was mentioned many times on the Sky News last night

Do we know whether she was?

I'm delighted she's coming home.

bellabasset · 16/03/2022 10:56

So pleased for her that she and the other detainee are on their way home. Gabriella is 8 shortly and with the 6 year detention of her mother this will be the first birthday she'll be able to remember being with both her parents

This series was excellent btw, and explains how we got here.

HelpMeHiveMind · 16/03/2022 11:10

So happy about this, just hope she actually gets home. With all the rubbish in the world this is such positive news albeit long overdue

boogiewithasuitcase · 16/03/2022 11:13

I will breathe a sigh of relief once I see on the news that she is now back in this country.

No. As I have understood it from the beginning, she had taken little girl to visit her parents. Not working there is any way. Why BJ made those comments is still unknown. I had a friend married to an Iranian and visiting his family was a bit of a nightmare. Going alone, he travelled in on a British passport but out on Iranian with British passport well hidden. Friend refused to go as a family when son reached 14 /15 as she was terrified they’d be detained and him forced into the army. They announce on the plane when it enters Iranian airspace and women are told to cover their heads. She said she always felt on edge the whole time there and was so relieved to be on the plane home.

Let’s hope Patel doesn’t stop her coming home because her passports expired!
