Snoop Dogg wins legal fight against ban from Britain

SNOOP DOGG has scored a victory over the British immigration authorities, paving the way for the hip-hop star to tour the UK.

Orginally banned from Britain in 2007 after his entourage got into a fight at Heathrow airport, Snoop Dogg has since been involved in a ding-dong legal battle with Immigration.

In the latest round, judges ruled that officials were wrong to slap the ban on Snoop Dogg and he has now been handed the chance to apply for a visa.

But that's not the end of it as those officials could yet appeal.

"We are studying the determination carefully and will take a decision on whether to appeal," said a spokesperson for the UK Border Agency.

Don't quite know why the Border Agency banned him in the first place. Surely it was never going to last, and the only winners in all this are lawyers who will have charged a fortune to lift the ban!? His entourage will be wanting compensation next!?
