Re: Geert Wilders refused entry to the UK
Chunky
To get one of your films shown in the house of Lords you need the support of a Lord - in this case Wilders was invited by a Lord Pearson, a UKIP member of the upper house.
I watched Fitna - and whilst its not a well made film, his message is quite clear - according [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fitna_(film)"]Wilders[/URL] the 15-minute film shows how verses from the Qur'an are being used today to incite modern Muslims to behave violently and anti-democratically based on those verses - is this what you mean by nonsense?>
An interesting aside, next month in the UK, SOAS (School of Oriental and African Studies) are hosting a conference on Political Islam - one of their key speakers, Dr Ibrahim Moussaoui, used to run Al-Manor TV (The Hizbollah TV station). Al Manor has produced some of the most anti-jewish shows, like, er, ever (examples below).

Should Moussaoui, like Wilders also be banned from entering the UK?
Can you image the out cry if he was?
That all aside, is the UK not setting a dangerous precedent by banning a member of parliament from one its European partners?
