What about groups already in the UK? I'm sure we would probably do the same thing to foreign nationals entering for the same purpose.
Another thing that particularly bugs me about their (WBC) choice of venue (funerals) is that they are private, not public, gatherings. They are usually on private property to boot. There is a potential conflict there between speech/assembly rights and private property rights. I'm not sure if that has been tested in this situation though.
