Closed Stop Roosh Vorek entering the UK

Closed on

Roosh Vorek, known as Roosh V, is a blogger who writes guidebooks for sex tourists and has argued for rape to be legalised on private property.

The 36-year-old American is planning to host a series of "international meet-ups" in cities including Edinburgh and Glasgow.

According to Vorek's website, only heterosexual men will be allowed at the meetings, the locations of which will remain secret until 8pm on Saturday evening.

Campaigners say Vorek's views constitute hate speech and have called for the Scottish Government to ban the meetings.
