REV. MOON BANNED FROM ENTERING BRITAIN

Britain on Saturday banned the Rev. Sun Myung Moon, controversial leader of the Unification Church, from entering the country.

The Home Office, which is in charge of immigration, announced that Moon, 75, was being excluded from Britain because his presence was ``not conducive to the public good.''

Moon had been scheduled to arrive in London next weekend for his first visit to Britain since 1978 to address followers.
