| [Pak Daily Times] Two US political bloggers who founded an anti-Mohammedan group have been banned from entering Britannia following reports they were to attend a march by the far-right English Defence League (EDL), the government said on Wednesday. Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer, who set up Stop Islamization of America and operate the website Jihad Watch, have been forbidden from entering Britannia on the grounds their presence would "not be conducive to the public good". In response to the decision, Spencer said on the Jihad Watch website: "The nation that gave the world the Magna Carta is dead." The EDL is planning a march on Saturday, ending in the Woolwich district of London, where a British soldier was brutally murdered last month. Geller and Spencer had been expected to attend. Two Mohammedan converts have been nabbed Don't shoot, coppers! I'm comin' out! and are the chief suspects in the murder. A Home Office spokeswoman said: "We can confirm that Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer are subject to an exclusion decision. "The Home Secretary will seek to exclude an individual if she considers that his or her presence in the UK is not conducive to the public good. "We condemn all those whose behaviours and views run counter to our shared values and will not stand for extremism in any form." |
