Their Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) was cancelled by the Home Office, citing that their presence may not be conducive to the public good. Both commentators have linked their bans to their previous criticism of Israel, with reports also indicating concerns about Uygur exacerbating antisemitism and Piker having a history of controversial remarks.
