A \u2018dangerous\u2019 anti-Islam influencer has been blocked from entering the UK to talk at Tommy Robinson\u2019s Unite the Kingdom rally.<\/p>\n

Valentina\u00a0Gomez dared the Government to stop her while suggesting Donald Trump\u2019s White House would intervene if the authorities tried to arrest her.<\/p>\n

The US-based influencer, who gained notoriety through stunts including burning a duplicate of the Quran, was banned by Shabana Mahmood after massive backlash.<\/p>\n

Responding to the choice with a video on her X account, Gomez said: \u2018I just got banned from England. Plan A is for an aeroplane, and since that\u2019s now not an option, we\u2019re going to plan B, and Plan B is for boats.<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019m going to hop on a ship, get free luxury accommodation, deliver my beautiful speech, and in the event that they dare to arrest me, I guarantee you that the White House will become involved.<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019m not only coming with Jesus Christ, I\u2019m coming with current and former soldiers of the US military. In the event that they actually need to disclaim my entry, well, they\u2019re just going to should stop the boats.\u2019<\/p>\n

Gomez, who was born in Colombia, has been a staunch supporter of MAGA and far-right rhetoric.<\/p>\n

She and her family moved to the US in 2009, but has based her political stance on anti-immigrant, anti-LGBTQ and anti-Muslim rhetoric.<\/p>\n

She gained notoriety after burning a duplicate of the Quran with a flamethrower, vowing to \u2018end Islam in Texas\u2019.<\/p>\n

After running to be a US Representative, Gomez won only 9.63% of the votes. <\/p>\n

She\u2019s kept up her profile by sharing videos, which have seen her banned from many social media platforms, including a video where she shot a dummy tied to a chair with a black bag over its head, saying it represented an immigrant.<\/p>\n

Why has she been banned?<\/h2>\n

Gomez was because of speak on the Unite the Kingdom rally in central London on May 16.<\/p>\n

Its previous protest in September, which Gomez spoke at, was attended by between 110,000 and 150,000 people.<\/p>\n

The Home Secretary \u2013 who has the ability to cancel an individual\u2019s permission to enter or stay within the UK \u2013 intervened because her presence wouldn’t be conducive to the general public good, it is known.<\/p>\n

The identical justification was used for blocking rapper Kanye West from entering earlier this month.<\/p>\n
