Just in, Wilders landed at 15:15 at Heathrow and was arrested.
UPDATE: Wilders will be deported from the UK
Note tagline
Ironically, the British action to ban him, has probably highlighted Wilders' position far better than it could otherwise have been.
The supposed reason for Wilders' being denied entry was "public safety," which was ultimately a response to outrage from the vocal Imams in Britain.
Sometimes, there's no better way to demonstrate the stupidity of somebody's demands, than to follow them exactly.
And ... knowing that the British have historically been very, very cagey in such matters in the past, perhaps that was precisely their intent.
Unbelievable. Here I am, an honest patriotic upright citizen, native born, never been in prison, pay all my bills on time, work my a$$ off, and I get grudgingly paid half what this scuzz bucket does for doing nothing but trying to bring my nation to its knees. He gets a £250,000 four bedroom detached in leafy suburbia. I get a crumbling two up two down in the town centre, total value £60,000 (if it can be sold).
Maybe I should pack in Christianity, convert to Islam and become a political activist. It seems to pay better all round.
For people wondering who Wilders is, it is the guy who made Fitna, do a FR search on it!
And therefor he was not allowed to enter the UK:

You make a good point, banning him because he might cause civil unrest makes a very good case that Wilders is correct about radical Islam being violent. The trouble with your interpretation is that in terms of cageyness has somewhat dissipated in light of their subsidies of and acquiescence to radical Islam in their culture. So, I really think they’re just being pigheaded about arresting him.
It is? Dang it! I even used a comb this morning.
Muhammed Airport: No one is allowed to board planes WITHOUT a propane cylinder.
I can’t wait to see how the British government tries to justify his deportation now that it’s kicking him, a duly elected member of the Dutch Parliament, out of the country because it caved in to the Islamo-crazies.
“on Tuesday he received a letter from the Home Office refusing him entry because his opinions “threaten community security and therefore public security”.”
Thanks for the link.
Just ridiculous
Thank you for the information.
The Mooselimbs should just bulldoze Parliament and put up a mosque...
Mouthing off about the true rulers of Britain.
Quite likely ... Gordon Brown is utterly out of his depth, and this is in line with his past behavior.
Nevertheless, even if they didn't mean to do it, this little charade has made the point far better than letting Wilders in could ever have done.
Wonder if there'll be interest and penalties, like under the IRS...
I believe it is peace for our time...
Go home and get a nice quiet sleep.
BTW, Hatteras - I was just teasing about the jizya post. **grin**
It's easy to tell you are from Europe because you are completely torn up with envy. What is up with that? It's ok to dislike someone, their job, and their politics, but envy is not ok. No matter how good your job, money, or house, someone somewhere is always going to have something better than you. You can be happy for what you do have or you can spend your time having a pity party.
