Dutch MP Geert Wilders has launched an appeal against the Home Office’s decision to ban him from travelling to the UK.
Wilders was scheduled to screen his controversial film, Fitna, in the House of Lords when he was refused entry into the country last month. The home secretary, Jacqui Smith, refused to allow him into the country on grounds of ‘public security’.
Upon its release online in 2008, Fitna met with demonstrations from around the Muslim world.
