Michael Savage banned from U.K.
AP - updated 1 hour, 3 minutes ago

LONDON - Britain for the first time has published a list of people barred from entering the country for what the government says is fostering extremism or hatred.

The list includes popular American talk-radio host Michael Savage, who has called the Muslim holy book, the Quran, a "book of hate." Savage also has enraged parents of children with autism by saying in most cases it's "a brat who hasn't been told to cut the act out."

The list Tuesday also includes Americans Stephen Donald Black, a white supremacist, and anti-gay preacher Fred Phelps.

Hamas parliament member Yunis Al-Astal and Egyptian cleric Safwat el-Higazi also are on the banned list.

1. Good.
Now if only we could get rid of Rupert Murdoch and the Daily Mail's owners...

2. He couldn't find England if he was standing in the middle of it.
He is a brainless bigot and nothing more.

Good for the Brits. Even if they're only banning the Savage Weiner to bookend some virulently anti-western, anti-Jewish Middle Eastern cleric or politico, it's what he richly deserves, IMO.
