A British citizen who was hoping to visit Berlin’s most exclusive nightclub, Berghain, this weekend has had his plans dashed after being refused entry to Germany at Berlin airport.
Wes Feilding traveled to Berlin early this morning with a group of friends and was planning on making it third time lucky with Berghain, having been refused entry on two previous occasions.
“I can’t believe it, I wasn’t sure about getting into the club but I never thought I’d get refused entry to the country,” claimed Wes while sitting in the departures lounge in Berlin airport waiting on the next flight back to London. “I thought Brexit was about keeping people out of Britain, not keeping Brits out of other countries, we’re not immigrants, we’re tourists or expats so surely the laws should work differently for us.”
“I came with a group including a couple of Irish lads, a French girl and about four Spaniards,” he continued sullenly. “The rest of them all got through without any hassle but as soon as the customs officer seen my British passport he just started to laugh, said ‘I don’t think so Tommy’ and threw my passport back at me. Now I’m left here all alone, without any friends and wondering if this whole Brexit thing was a bad idea.”
According to Berlin sources, Berghain’s security staff have announced that they will be “significantly relaxing their policies” after Britain’s decision to leave the European Union.
“The whole point of the ultra strict door policy was to keep the British out,” explained security chief Sven Marquardt. “We’re still a bit bitter about the whole war thing. The problem was that we could never tell who was British and who wasn’t, you English speakers all sound exactly the same to us, but now that they won’t be getting into the country as easily any more we won’t have to turn so many people away.”
