So this seems a little far fetched? Nope...There actually is a list of 23, with only 16 people made public, who are banned from entering Britian for fostering hatred. Now what I want to know is why Rush Limbaugh is not on this list?

Britain's Banned List

The U.K.'s law and order chief, Home Secretary Jacqui Smith, said she decided to publish the names of 16 of 22 people who have been banned by the government since October so others could better understand what sort of behavior Britain was not prepared to tolerate. I agree with Stewart, have you seen their soccer matches?

She cited unidentified "public interest" reasons for not disclosing the other six names.

Who could they be, I am curious.

"I think it's important that people understand the sorts of values and sorts of standards that we have here, the fact that it's a privilege to come and the sort of things that mean you won't be welcome in this country," Smith told GMTV.

But some of the people on the list criticized it, and one analyst said it contains a wide variety of people to avoid giving Britain's Muslims the impression that it singles them out.

Yeah, right. I think this shows how narrowly the Brits look down their noses at people, something they honestly have done for hundreds of years. Terrorist and criminals I can understand. Britian is going too far with it's super surveillance, audio listening and internet monitoring and control.

This will end up biting them in the backside someday in the future...oh say about 2050, if not by 2032. When the dynamics of their society changes over to the new majority - Muslims. They need to wake up and smell the humus, or perhaps they already have and this is the reaction.
