MORE MOVES TO STOP SNOOP ENTERING THE U.K?

The UK's Border Agency, a government department (that only came into being last week), are reportedly planning on appealing a ruling of the British Asylum & Immigration Tribunal which gave rap star Snoop Dogg clearance to enter the country.

Snoop was refused a UK visa last year after being charged with violent disorder at Heathrow Airport in 2006. The visa issues led to the cancellation of UK dates on a 2007 Snoop/Diddy co-headline tour.

But the rapper's people appealed the ban on the rapper entering the country, and Snoop himself revealed on US TV recently that that appeal had been successful and that he had been given the OK to come to Britain.

The Border Agency announced on Friday that it would challenge the Tribunal's decision this week. It remains to be seen if they are successful.
