Talk radio host Michael Savage is considering legal action against Britain's top homeland security official after she released today a list grouping him with terrorists and neo-Nazi murderers banned from entry because the government believes their views might provoke violence.
In a telephone interview with WND, Savage said he is still waiting to hear back from attorneys, but he noted Britain has very strict anti-defamation laws.
Home Secretary Jacqui Smith said she decided to publicize the list of 16 people banned since October to show the type of behavior Britain will not tolerate, according to U.K. news reports.
Savage's immediate reaction upon hearing the news was typically wry.
"Darn! And I was just planning a trip to England for their superior dental work and cuisine," he recalled thinking.
"Then it sank in," he told WND, "and I said, 'She said this is the kind of behavior we won't tolerate? She's linking me with mass murderers who are in prison for killing Jewish children on buses? For my speech? The country where the Magna Carta was created?'

The sun has finally set on the ol’ Empire.
THIS AS BIZAAR AS PUTTING A WIG ON A JUDGE..
Savage hit the nail on the head. This is very revealing about the UK. Is this the same government which allows Muslims to keep several wives? England has a death wish. Or at least its government does.

The Magna Carta didn't guarantee freedom of speech, Mike. The Constitution did.
They should ban Obamma, he seems to be inciting more people than Mr. Savage.
Home Secretary Jacqui Smith said she decided to publicize the list of 16 people banned since October to show the type of behavior Britain will not tolerate, according to U.K. news reports.
This the same Jacqui Smith whose husband was getting porn and charging it to the government.
England is a total $hit-hole. Why would anyone want to travel there anyway. It is a dying country. Have you noticed that many millions of Britons have said they would like to live elsewhere. They deserve what’s coming to them.
“This the same Jacqui Smith whose husband was getting porn and charging it to the government.”
You mean taxpayer funded porn isn’t already being provided to all Britons by their socialist government?
They have gone off the deep end!
They want to silence him because he hits the nail righth on the head. The guy actually loves all that Britain once was; it comes out in his broadcasts regularly. He is bravely standing up for our veterans against outrageous, illegal govt harassment:

Michael Savage > Ricky Hatton
Until then, they are simply ignoring the homicidal 800 pound gorilla in their living room.
I hope Savage can sue and does so successfully. This British Home Secretary is a pig anyway and is abusing her office.
Remember, for the longest time he was playing "There's No England Anymore", by the Kinks, not to mention his quips about Royals Inbreeding. Payback, they can't handle the truth...
I don’t like Savage and I’ll defend to the death the UK’s right to keep him out of their country.
(Kidding.)
It won’t be long before Obama’s thought police will ban him here. We all will be next.
