Guess who's coming to dinner?
Geert Wilders.
In a story I have not seen in the Engllish language media (yet), but is all over the Dutch media - 'The Asylum and Immigration Tribunal in London has ruled that Dutch rightwing politician Geert Wilders should not have been refused entry to the United Kingdom in February'. Source. The case was brought by The Birkenhead Society, 'A conservative debating society and political forum for current affairs and a society to encourage free speech'.
Looks like he'll be heading this way again ere long, and quoth he, "[the ruling is] “fantastic news”... “The British government’s political decision has rightly been swept off the table by the British judge. This is a victory for the freedom of expression.”
Item #1 in Straw in box, perhaps?
