Swedish climate academic Andreas Malm, author of How to Blow Up a Pipeline, has been barred from the UK on the grounds his presence may not be conducive to the public good. He was due to speak in London alongside a co-founder of banned group Palestine Action. Malm called the decision scandalous, Sally Rooney condemned it, and the Home Office declined to discuss individual cases.
