Relating to Israel's decision to bar two UK Labour MPs from entering the country, it's worth noting that in 2008, a UK Labour government denied entry to Israeli Likud politician @moshefeiglin. Citing public safety concerns, the Home Office stated his articles and comments prompted the ban, with no right to appeal. Conversely, the two UK MPs reportedly were offered the right under Israeli law to petition the court to reconsider the decision and were offered hotel accommodation, which they declined.
