British government cancels plan for Trump to address Parliament
New York Post ^ | February 10, 2017 | Yaron Steinbuch

The British government has pulled the plug on a planned address by President Trump to the joint Houses of Parliament during a state visit, according to a report.

Commons Speaker John Bercow this week said Trump should not be allowed to address Parliament because of his immigration ban, as well as the UK’s “opposition to racism and to sexism.”

Trump’s controversial visit is expected to take place in late summer or early autumn — with officials trying to avoid a formal snub by making sure he is not in London when Parliament is sitting, the Guardian reported.

British politicians continually threatened British social workers and police officers with loss of their jobs if they investigated Muslim gangs targeting and gang raping young British girls.

These same politicians are again trying to appease Muslims by not allowing Trump to speak before Parliament during his planned visit.

PRESIDENT TRUMP: (addressing Parliament) “I want to thank the British people for such a warm welcome and supporting the Brexit movement with all their hearts... It’s a beautiful thing... By the way, I’m buying Buckingham Palace and Lizzy needs to get out...”

America broke away from you Britons along time ago, we have been doing just fine, and if you think we are going to come begging to talk in your ‘House of Lords’ you can shove it...we don't go begging, bowing, and giving away free stuff anymore...

You want something, don't ask us, go ask the Muslims, like the Mayor in London...

President Trump extended the hand of friendship to the Brits the minute he took office.

If they think they are going to get away with disrespecting him the way many others trashed G.W. Bush they are in for an unpleasant awakening.

Their little pee pot island is going to become a lonely place if they turn their back on Trump and America.

Trump should return the Churchill Bust with a note that says

FU Brits.

That’s ok, I’m sure the Brits don’t need anything from us. And honestly, we should begin to regard them as a hostile Islamic nuclear power.

While we freak out that Iran might get a bomb someday, Britain is becoming more Islamic by the month. Within a decade, RN Captain Ali Mustafa Mohammed will take a British Vanguard class SSBN out from the Clyde, onto an Atlantic patrol with 128 Trident delivered nuclear bombs.

WHile we worry about a few homebrew bombs, the musloids are about to get a turn Key nuclear system. Same in France.

We had better pivot our thinking.

I think he should go there and address the British people and down the road broker a trade deal to support brexit and undermine these idiots.

Yes, and keep his mouth shut! No comments! No Twitter, ostracize the Brits until they want something.

Soounds like the Brits still haven’t learned a damn thing about having “migrants” overtake their country. Trump might have rubbed it in their face a bit and they wouldn’t have like that. Guess he can just visit the Queen instead.

This article is old news.... This has not been taken well by England and the guy behind this is taking a beating.

This article is misleading in light of follow up events. Breitbart is on this story, check them out.
