Comment on Hasan Piker, Cenk Uygur Denied Entry to UK Over Palestine Support
theo@lemmy.world 10 hours agoI actually agree with you, but this comment is misleading. The UK Government has said none of those things and has not made any statement on this as referenced by “The Home Office has been contacted for comment.”
The first quote was from The Community Security Trust, and the second from The Times.

Well, I actually agree with you, but actually the first quote was from The Times and the second quote was from Labour MP David Taylor.
I just thought it was fair to extrapolate that the reasons the government banned him were the same as those who publicly called for the ban, not separate reasons that no one who actually supports the decision has cited.
