Emma Ridley says she has been "kicked out" of a film convention over her political views.

The 52-year-old actress played Princess Ozma in the 1985 Disney film 'Return to Oz' and was due to make an appearance to celebrate its 40th anniversary at OzCon International in California in June but after organisers announced she would "no longer be appearing", she has insisted that it was down her personal beliefs, and alleged that she was not even informed of the decision before it was made public.
