Members of the punk rock band UK Subs have said they were denied entry and detained in the US, according to accounts from the band themselves.
Bassist Alvin Bibbs shared details of the incident with local UK news website Dorset Eye on Thursday, which comes amid widespread reports of people being denied entry to the US, including a French scientist who said he was barred because of anti-Donald Trump comments he had made.
Bibbs, along with bandmates Marc Carrey and Stefan Häublein, were deported back to the UK following their detainment. Only vocalist Charlie Harper had been allowed entry. Harper ended up playing the band’s scheduled show in Los Angeles with a group of stand-in musicians.

Bibbs says his partner waited 25 hours for him to finally be released from the detention. “By the time we were escorted on to the flight at 8pm the next day, I had gone without sleep for well over a day, surviving only on a pot noodle and a couple of cups of tea.”

Anyone who posts on social media that's critical of Chump is not allowed into the US. The border entry agents (including ICE but also others) are examining travelers' cellphones. That's how bad it is right now.
Living in a tourist town that sees groups of them from other countries, then thinking about the loss of that income from hotels, casinos, restaurants, etc...
It's gonna be like the pandemic, but only the US is locked out from the rest of the world
