There’s losing an election, then there’s literally getting banned from a whole country.

Nick Clegg probably thought that things couldn’t get much worse after May 7 but guess what? They just did.

A document leaked to Finland’s public-service broadcaster shows that his visa has been revoked.

The list, which was published on May 26, shows a number of EU politicians and notable figures who are now barred from entering the country.


Among them are also Sir Malcolm Rifkind, the former Kensington MP, and French philosopher Bernard-Henri Levy.

A perhaps less surprising name on the list is Andrew Parker, the Director-General of MI5.



Maybe Clegg should react like fellow LibDem Ed McMillan-Scott, and take the news lightly…

I'm banned from #Russia again – first time since 1972! #45 on the hit list http://t.co/JF02rAkumF — Ed McMillan-Scott (@emcmillanscott) May 29, 2015
