The British government has finally responded to a petition demanding that Donald Trump be banned from the country. Yes, the British government has the authority to ban certain individuals from the country if the people in question could be considered a public danger or a harm to society.
The government petition website requires 10,000 signatures to get a government response and 100,000 signatures to be debated in Parliament. As of today, it has over 500,000 signatures.
The petition was drafted in reaction to Trump’s call for a Muslim entry ban in the U.S., which plenty of British leaders––including Prime Minister David Cameron––strongly condemned.
Well, today, the government responded, providing the viewpoint of Home Secretary Theresa May. Here’s the response in full:
For good reasons the Government does not routinely comment on individual immigration and exclusion decisions.
The Home Secretary may exclude a non-European Economic Area national from the UK if she considers their presence in the UK to be non-conducive to the public good.
The Home Secretary has said that coming to the UK is a privilege and not a right and she will continue to use the powers available to prevent from entering the UK those who seek to harm our society and who do not share our basic values.
Exclusion powers are very serious and are not used lightly. The Home Secretary will use these powers when justified and based on all available evidence.
The Prime Minister has made clear that he completely disagrees with Donald Trump’s remarks. The Home Secretary has said that Donald Trump’s remarks in relation to Muslims are divisive, unhelpful and wrong.

May God bless you and yours sir.
A word from a man such as yourself makes one face head-on how much we have lost, and are yet in danger of losing.
Have a great New Year!
They’ve done without a friend in the White House since January 2009. Maybe they’re shooting for another 8 eight years?
And, victims of rape are considered adulterers.
Well ‘hard cheese’ as they like to say in the UK. I lived there and endured disdain for the US (except from some of the WW2 generation). At a couple of dinner parties with leftist academics slamming the US I mentioned my absolute support for ending their NATO alliance. It was always met with silence. LOL! Hypocrites.
If Trump becomes President, he should present them with ANOTHER set of Obama speech CD’s.
Trump isn’t even President yet and foreign governments are reacting to him.
Obama should demand an apology, on behalf of the American people, for interfering in our free elections, and for insulting one of the candidates.
That’s what civility means, and what it means to be not a partisan Democrat, but the representative of the whole nation.
Thank you for your service. My dad was there as well, landing at Cherberg.
Marxist stupidity is deep in the British political psyche, my friends. It will take a lot of political Ex-Lax to get it out. Meanwhile more Islamic extremists will kill more British citizens.
Can’t blame than on Bush, Michael Savage or Trump.
Trump isn’t a muslim rapist pedophile so I guess he isn’t good enough for the U.K.

Have you heard of the city of Rotherham in England? There has been a terrible scandal going on there for 15 or more years. Muslims who are a large part of the population of Rotherham have been grooming 1400 young English girls into prostitution. Police, teachers and social workers reported what was going on but the politically correct higher ups called it Islamophobia so nothing was done for more than 15 years. And yes, don’t forget the pedophile scandal among some members of Parliament and other higher ups. The higher up you go in the British government the bigger the stink!
Damn, a privilege ... I thought we sent queers, freaks and perverts there to serve their sentences!
Liberalism is killing western civilization.
London is now mockingly called Londonistan.
