Rudel was banned from entering England last week by Home Secretary R.A. Butler, after an inquiry on the subject in the House of Commons by Barnett Janner, Laborite Member of Parliament. Meanwhile, Marleybone Town, which has jurisdiction over the auditorium booked by the fascists for the meeting, canceled the permit for the session.
