Far right posterboy Richard Spencer has reportedly been banned from 26 European countries for half a decade.

The far right leader, who is credited with coining the term “alt-right”, has been barred from entering 26 countries in Europe's visa-free Schengen area for five years, according to an unnamed source close to Poland’s foreign ministry.

Poland's state-run news agency PAP said Polish authorities had prohibited Spencer, who rose to mainstream prominence for being punched at an anti-Trump protest, from entering more than two dozen countries.

But Spencer himself said he had yet to receive government confirmation of his purported ban and would attempt to challenge it.
