Several British pastors and politicians are voicing concerns about a controversial American evangelist’s plans to preach in the U.K. next year. But not all residents of the area are enthused about Graham coming to town. In an interview with the station in November, Marsden said he’d heard from his constituents, including faith leaders, who told him they were worried about Graham’s visit. Marsden said he’s concerned that Graham could violate the U.K.’s laws against hate speech, given his troubling prior statements. Graham proposed a ban on Muslims entering the U.S. in July 2015, months before Trump did the same.
