The third most listened to radio talk show host in America, Michael Savage, outlawed from traveling to the UK by Home Secretary Jacqui Smith because of his political opinions, has vowed to take legal action to clear his name on grounds of defamation after he was included in a list of banned individuals because of his opposition to illegal immigration.

World Net Daily reports that Savage is talking to attorneys and notes that England has very strict laws regarding defamation of character.

Reacting with shock to being linked with terrorists, racist groups and violent skinheads, Savage responded, “She said this is the kind of behavior we won’t tolerate? She’s linking me with mass murderers who are in prison for killing Jewish children on buses? For my speech? The country where the Magna Carta was created?’”

Smith said that Savage was an example of “someone who has fallen into the category of fomenting hatred, of such extreme views and expressing them in such a way that it is actually likely to cause inter-community tension or even violence if that person were allowed into the country.”

“Shame on you. Shame that you’ve fallen to such a low level,” responded Savage."
