A journalist who recently criticized UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer on social media has said she was banned from entering the country.
On Wednesday, political commentator Eva Vlaardingerbroek revealed that the UK government had canceled her entry permit, claiming her presence was not “conducive to the public good.”
Infowars.com reports: “Dear EVA,” the message stated. “Your UK ETA [Electronic Travel Authorization] has been cancelled from 13 Jan 2026. This means you cannot travel to the UK without a visa. This is because: Your presence in the UK is not considered to be conducive to the public good. You cannot appeal this decision.”
The journalist ranted about the ban on X, saying, “I don’t know what that means. Since when is being ‘conducive to the public good’ a requirement to enter a country? I mean, especially the United Kingdom, where, if I’m not mistaken, thousands of illegal immigrants enter through the Channel every day. Every day. Nobody’s asking them to be ‘conducive to the public good,’ but I cannot come.”
Vlaardingerbroek pointed out the suspension “came out of the blue,” as she hadn’t applied for a permit, but noted the timing was suspicious considering it came three days after she’d made an X post blasting the nation’s prime minister.
“Three days ago I posted this about Keir Starmer, calling out his hypocrisy — that he wants to ban X because of women’s safety, while at the same time he’s the one who’s allowing these migrant gang rapes to happen. Obviously, he’s just doing that because he wants to ban free speech.”
Here’s her Starmer post from Jan. 9:
Vlaardingerbroek’s arbitrary ban is a chilling symbol of the UK’s suppression of free speech, as it punishes journalists for trying to warn the people about the dangers of mass migration.
