Bloggers Geller and Spencer banned from UK

Wow, Great Britain has lowered itself to banning two bloggers I know, Pam Geller and Robert Spencer, from entering the UK.

From BBC:

Ms Geller, of the Atlas Shrugs blog, and Mr Spencer, of Jihad Watch, are also co-founders of the American Freedom Defense Initiative, best known for a pro-Israel "Defeat Jihad" poster campaign on the New York subway.

The UK should never become a stage for inflammatory speakers who promote hate"

On both of their blogs the pair called their bans from entering the UK "a striking blow against freedom" and said the "the nation that gave the world the Magna Carta is dead".

They were due to attend a march planned by the far-right EDL [English Defense League] to mark Armed Forces Day on 29 June, ending in Woolwich, south east London, where soldier Drummer Rigby was murdered last month.
