"Dutch MP banned from visiting Britain."
Article 18 of the ec treaty gives every union citizen a directly effective right to move within the eu.
While Member States are allowed to derogate from this on the basis of 'public security', they are not allowed to do so for 'community harmony', except the British government who will do exactly what it wants, in the interests of ‘community harmony’.
I now quote from Melanie Phillips who expresses my sentiments exactly:-
"If British MPs do not raise hell about this banning order, if they go along with this spinelessness, if they fail to stand up for the principle that the British Parliament of all places must be free to hear what a fellow democratically elected politician has to say about one of the most difficult and urgent issues of our time, if they fail to hold the line against the threat of violence but capitulate to it instead, they will be signalling that Britain is no longer the cradle of freedom and democracy but its graveyard."
I can't see any future "harmony" in this land until we get rid of this "dissonant" government.
