A British man fought ISIS got 8 years prison
A former British soldier has been sentenced to spend seven years and six months in a Turkish jail for fighting against Islamic State militants in Syria, alongside Kurdish militia forces.
Robinson, who toured Afghanistan with the Duke of Lancaster’s regiment in 2012, went to Syria in July 2015, days after a terrorist killed 38 tourists including 30 Britons in a mass-shooting in Sousse in Tunisia.
He has said he was inspired to go to protect civilians from Islamic militants, after becoming incensed by gory Isil propaganda videos and what he saw as British inaction in the region.
Robinson spent four weeks with the People’s Protection Units of Syrian Kurdistan (YPG), working as a combat medic according to his family. He then crossed into Iraq to join Iraqi-government-backed peshmerga forces fighting Isil, before returning to the UK in November 2015.
Membership of the YPG is illegal in Turkey, where the government argues the group is affiliated to the Kurdistan Workers’ party (PKK) which has waged an insurgency against the Turkish state for decades. The YPG is not a proscribed terrorist group in the UK.
On his return Robinson was arrested on suspicion of terrorism offences by British police at Manchester airport but all charges were dropped after a ten-month investigation.
Then last July, while on holiday in Turkey with his fiancee and her mother, Robinson and both women were arrested in an armed raid by Turkish police in the town of in Didim, 60 miles north of Bodrum.

They allowed it to be all one sided, I watched it, no doubt, the UK tax payers will soon be having to pay her transport back, find a new home for and pay her big benefits.

Sorry Annis , but where do you get the idea from that British people who have fought for ISIS get a free flight home , a free house and unlimited benefits? That is simply not true and never has been.
The ex-soldier arrested seems to be a harsh case , but that is the Turkish government`s decision based on their interpretation of what is a terrorist organisation and nothing at all to do with British law or a British government decision.

Keith you could describe Annis' comments as being a bit exaggerated but there is a basis of truth. ISIS fighters would have been flown to the UK free if they had reached a British consular. The UK Government may then invoice them for the privilege but whether that would ever get paid is up for debate.
On return to the UK the ISIS terrorists would be entitled to claim Housing Benefit which in affect would give them 'free' housing. They would also be able to claim benefits.
I heard that several are receiving ESA based on the traumatic events they suffered in the middle east which makes them unfit for work it is possible to receive up to £190pw. Also they can claim further money from Personal Independence Payments which can add another £140pw. As mentioned above they would also receive Housing Benefit and Council Tax Benefit and that is before any payments for family members such as wives and children.
Payments are not automatic and must be applied for and the claimant must fit the criteria. But it is far from unlikely that at least some ex-ISIS fighters are receiving large benefit payments.
