Mark Steyn comments on the re-instated Michael Savage/UK ban

Mark Steyn writes:

The letter from a bloke called Michael Atkins, for the Treasury Solicitor, is a remarkable document – not least the reference in 3 (c) to the “allegation” (as Atkins puts it) that Savage “has many homosexual friends and respects Islam as a great religion”.

Why should admission to the United Kingdom be conditional on either of these no doubt splendid attributes?

Is there a minimum number of homosexual friends you need to get past Heathrow?

Indeed, how many of the many immigrants to Britain who “respect Islam as a great religion” have “homosexual friends”?
