I know I’m late to this, but VERY bad precedent. You don’t want to listen to Savage, change the channel.
Now that Britain has set the standard of ‘we don’t like what you said so you can’t come here” what other critera will they use?

Freedom of speech is a bit different in the UK. It is easier to sue for slander and the government can do much more than the government here. They can go to Fleet Street and get all over the newspapers and they control the airwaves. What the UK has would not fly here. They are a free society, but not like ours.
