Why was Eva Vlaardingerbroek banned from the UK?

Tucker Carlson 0:04
Eva, this is – I was reading this story this morning, and I was thinking, I can't believe they did this to a Dutch journalist. Then I saw the name. I was like, wait, I know her. I can't believe this happened. So I just want – look, I just want to read you back, back to you, the letter that you received from the British government to confirm that you actually received this. It's to you, and it says your UK visa basically has been canceled. This means you cannot travel to the UK without a visa. This is because, I'm quoting, this is because your presence in the UK is not considered to be productive to the public good. You cannot appeal this decision. Did you actually receive that letter?
Eva Vlaardingerbroek 0:43
I did. And relatively out of the blue, too.

What does the letter from the British government say?

Eva Vlaardingerbroek 0:46
I mean, I was going through my emails yesterday and I saw this subject line saying that they changed something to my ETA application. I was like, what is this? I didn't apply for an ETA. I'm not, you know, planning on traveling to the UK right now. So I just opened it. And I saw this very, I mean, you have the email. It's a very short, simple email. And it just said, we revoked your ETA because we consider you not conducive to the public good and you have no right to appeal. Bye. That was it. And so I was like, what? You know, what is this? And then, you know, I started thinking, like, what could this be? Why are they sending this to me now? And then I realized that I criticized Keira Starmer a couple of days earlier on X.
Tucker Carlson 1:32
Well, so I'm going to read you the quote. I think I have it in front. You described Starmer, who's the prime minister of the country, the elected official, as an evil, despicable man for allowing the ongoing rape and killing of British girls by a migrant rape gang. Guilty as charged. You're making a political point, an entirely defensible political point, and you believe that because you said that, you are now banned from the country.
Eva Vlaardingerbroek 2:03
I really don't see any other reason as to why they otherwise would have done this right now. As I said, I applied for this electronic travel authorization back in September because I went and spoke at the Unite the Kingdom rally organized by Tommy Robinson. And I spoke about re-migration and the need for that. And, you know, now because of Brexit, Europeans have to apply for an ETA as when we go to America, we have to apply for an ESTA, right? And this was approved back in September within minutes. Like, I just got it. No problems, no questions asked. And now...

How did Eva react to the UK visa revocation?

Eva Vlaardingerbroek 2:38
Out of the blue, as I said, I received that email saying they revoked it. And I'm not traveling to the United Kingdom anytime soon. I didn't book any tickets to fly there. So the only thing that I could think about was that I said what I said about Keir Starmer. I still stand by it, by the way, just three days before they informed me of that decision. So, I mean, it's really hard not to connect the dots there. And it's also very much in line with his track record. And I suppose it proves my point, you know, that the UK is on a path to become a very unfree country where dissident voices are criticized. People are thrown in jail. And obviously, I'm not a citizen of the United Kingdom, so they can't do that to me.
Eva Vlaardingerbroek 3:20
But this is something that they can do, apparently.
Tucker Carlson 3:24
The continent is descending into darkness once again, clearly. What do you think big picture this tells us about what's happening in Europe and the UK specifically?
Eva Vlaardingerbroek 3:38
I mean, in the UK, this is the definition of a totalitarian state, right? This is the definition of a dictatorship in the sense that you are apparently not allowed to criticize its supreme leader without having your freedoms limited. And this is quite a severe limitation of my freedom in the sense that I was given no due process. I was not given a warning. I have no right to appeal. That's what it stated in the email. for the crime, quote unquote, of giving my opinion. And so that is bad. That's not a normal way for things to happen in so-called free societies. So no matter what you think my opinions are, if they're right, wrong, radical, not radical,
