LONDON, Oct 30 (Reuters) – Swedish climate academic Andreas Malm said on Friday he had been denied entry to Britain, where he was due to speak alongside the co-founder of Palestine Action, a group banned as a terrorist organisation.

Malm, an academic at Sweden’s Lund University, has been a vocal critic of Israel and expressed strong support for the Palestinian movement.

Britain’s Home Office (interior ministry) said it did not comment on individual cases.
