'Despite Ban, Dutch Lawmaker Vows to Visit Britain'
Foxnews.com has also picked up on the commotion surrounding Geert Wilders' visit to the United Kingdom, and his intention to defy the British government's ban on him entering the country. 'Despite Ban, Dutch Lawmaker Vows to Visit 'Cowardly' Britain', reads the headline. The Freedom Party leader rejects the idea that his presence in Britain would pose a threat to society.
"Threat to society? I'm an elected member of Parliament; I have done nothing wrong. I'm a normal, law-abiding democrat. You might agree or disagree with my political point of view, but I'm no threat to anyone."
Lord Malcolm Pearson, one of the peers responsible for inviting Wilders is equally dismissive of the British government's decision.
"I was very surprised the British government should have become so weak and useless that it denies a European member of parliament the right to free speech in the mother of parliaments."
