Overview

• Renaud Camus, known for his 'Great Replacement' conspiracy theory, has been barred from entering the UK after his electronic travel authorization (ETA) was rejected.
• UK authorities deemed Camus's presence 'not conducive to the public interest,' requiring him to apply for a visa if he wishes to enter the country.
• The decision prevents Camus from participating in a Homeland Party event next week and an Oxford Union debate later this spring.
• Camus announced the ban on X (formerly Twitter), expressing frustration over the restriction and its impact on his engagements.
• The British Home Office has yet to comment on the decision, which aligns with its broader efforts to limit extremist discourse within the UK.
