The Muslim Council of Britain (MCB) has called on the Home Office to stop an evangelical preacher from the US coming to the UK. Franklin Graham, the son of the evangelist Billy Graham, is linked to Donald Trump and has a history of making Islamophobic and homophobic statements.Mr  Graham, who described Islam as “evil” and “wicked” and said LGBT rights and same-sex marriage were the work of the devil, has been invited to speak at a Christian festival in Blackpool. In response to Mr Graham’s invitation, three MPs, including a Tory government whip and the MCB have come together to urge the Home Office to deny his entry to the UK.
