Home Office blocks entry of US-based anti-Islam influencer into UK
——————————-
A US-based anti-Islam influencer has been blocked from entering the UK by the Home Office, BBC reported.

Valentina Gomez, who has unsuccessfully sought election in Missouri and Texas on an anti-Islam platform, previously filmed herself burning a copy of the Quran in a campaign video on social media.

Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood decided that Gomez’s presence in the country “would not be conducive to the public good”.

Gomez wrote on social media last week that she would be speaking at the Tommy Robinson-organised Unite the Kingdom rally in London on 16 May.

Responding to the ban, she suggested she would attempt to enter the UK on a small boat, and dared the government to stop her.
