The British neo-Nazi Mark Collett was stopped from entering Sweden when he arrived with a flight to Arlanda outside Stockholm on Saturday, reports Expressen.

In a post on the messaging service Telegram, Collett writes that the reason for being denied entry was that he constitutes a threat to public order, and that he then had to wait for more than a day in the airport's departure hall before being escorted by two police officers to a flight back to the UK.

Mark Collett, who is described by, among others, the British BBC as a hardcore neo-Nazi, had traveled to Sweden to speak at a right-wing extremist meeting.

A notorious Nazi activist who has a long commitment to open Nazism, said Morgan Finnsjö, researcher at the anti-racist foundation Expo, to P4 Skaraborg at the end of July.
