I've signed it!
I asked myself "Would I like this man inside my home?" and as it came back as a resounding "NO!" I decided that I would rather sign the one that tells him "Go forth and multiply!" instead! :thumb:
Lol I know he's teetotal but if he came to my drum I'd persuade him to sample a few fine ales and we'd put the world right, but he seems to be doing that already on his own!
I wouldn't let any politician into my home they are all the same in my view but the guy was voted in by Americans and he is doing what he said he would which I wish our lot would do, why as the petition says should be be gagged just because some Brits don't like that fact?
............ Just because he told people what he would do in advance does not make it correct or clever!
Spot on! :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:
You don't have to lie to prove yourself an idiot ...
... but it helps! :lol: :lol: :lol:
He will struggle to do as much damage to the USA as Mumma Merkel has done to Germany and Europe for that matter.
Personally I would sooner have a visit by Donald than her and I'm not much of a Donald fan either.
And she is destroying Europe intentionally.
I try not to mix online forums with politics, but here I am...
Anyway, as a liberal I think people should be free to do what they want as long as it doesn't harm others. Which is why I have an issue with this petition. It's saying "I disagree with this person's views, therefore I don't want them in my country." That's trying to ban those with right wing beliefs from Britain. Of course, I consider myself pretty left wing and literally hate Theresa May and her band of next Tuesdays, let alone Trump, but that's what living in a free society means.
Yet, maybe him making a state visit to the UK does go against living in a free and liberal society. He promotes hate and fear to the extent it does infringe on the civil liberties of others, and when that happens a free society can't exist. Banning him from entering the country is helping to protect the rights of the people living here.
Philosophy of the matter aside, signing the petition is probably a good idea. He's not gonna be banned from coming in on a state visit, but it says "Trump, the British people don't like you or your ways, and on an international stage you are not a popular man."
You forget that he is not a politician he is a media star and often failed businessman and self publisictand that is the problem. All of his schemes are grandstanding for teh media, look great to the non political classes ( them against us) but will do more damage in the long run.
