UK government bans Geert Wilders from coming to screen Fitna in House of Commons
First, they invite him, then they withdraw the invitation. Then they restore it, but the government, if anyone in that madhouse, decides to ban Wilders from entering the country, and deems him - not the Islamofascists who go around inciting racial hatred - a threat to safety.
Are the MPs going to protest this? The International Free Press Society has issued a letter to the British government stating the following:
Update: well, it looks like the question's been answered: the authorities arrested him and plan to deport him back to Holland (via Hot Air Headlines). In an interview with the Times (also via Hot Air Headlines), he summed up a few things about the British government:

Are the MPs going to protest this? The International Free Press Society has issued a letter to the British government stating the following:
The British Home Office has further stated that in barring Geert Wilders from the UK it is stopping “extremism, hatred and violent messages” from coming to its country. The British Home Office is wrong. These things are already there. With this crude rebuff of Mr. Wilders, the Netherlands, and freedom of speech, the British government has all but ensured that such extremism, hatred and violent messages will continue to flourish in British soil, taking root and taking over.Absolutely correct. All they're doing is ensuring more hatemongering continuing throughout the blighty. According to Jihad Watch, Wilders is supposed to be flying to Heathrow in defiance of the ban, so it remains to be seen if the UK is going to respect his right to free speech in defense of democracy or not.
Update: well, it looks like the question's been answered: the authorities arrested him and plan to deport him back to Holland (via Hot Air Headlines). In an interview with the Times (also via Hot Air Headlines), he summed up a few things about the British government:
Mr Wilders told The Times on the flight that the British Government was “the biggest bunch of cowards in Europe”.Yep, that's what they're like now.
”It is easy to invite people you agree with, it is more difficult to invite people you disagree with and this is the proof of the pudding," he said.
"I am going to Great Britain because I was invited by another politician (Lord Pearson of Rannoch). I am a democrat, I am serving freedom of speech. They are not only being nasty to me they are being nasty to freedom of speech.
He added: "They (the British government) are more Chamberlain than Churchill."
