"A list of names of several British jihadis was drawn up at the meeting of senior national security council members that approved the first UK drone strike on Syria, it has emerged.

Several names were identified for targeting at the NSC meeting. Downing Street said the meeting, held several months ago and chaired by David Cameron, was convened to discuss how to protect the British people in the face of threats from “a number of individuals”."
