Donald Trump debate: Ban risks making tycoon a 'martyr'
BBC News ^ | 1/18/2016 | BBC

Posted on 01/18/2016 11:14:52 AM PST by Nextrush

Stopping Donald Trump from coming to the UK risks turning him into a martyr, a Labour MP has claimed as the House of Commons debates the issue.

Paul Flynn said Mr. Trump's call to ban Muslims from the US was "extremely dangerous" but barring him from the UK risked being seen as anti-American.

However, SNP MP Tasmina Ahmed-Sheikh said a ban would be justified on the grounds of "religious harmony".

I like it. Just keeps our future President in the press. I hope they all start with this tonight. Donald is a World news person. What a great person he is. We are very lucky to have him as a candidate.

Overall, I think Europe and the USA’s “special relationship” will eventually end.

We need to recognize that they are heading in a different direction from the USA (or at least I hope we don’t follow them on their insane leftist, multi-culti muslim path).

I think the Conservative MP’s and some of the Labour ones will not vote for a ban knowing there could be a backlash.

They say they disagree with his comments, but don’t think a ban is the right way to go.

So this guy is saying that banning Muslims from the US is dangerous. Really? You got these Muslim thugs and terrorists overrunning Europe killing and raping people I’d say banning them is probably going to keep our people safer.

I wish every country would ban him and whomever the next President is so they will keep their butts at home and tend to our business first.

It risks turning the UK into an international laughing stock. Welcome in Muslims, cover up for their crimes as they systematically abuse young girls on a massive scale and create zones within the UK unsafe for any non-Muslims to enter, and ban Trump - Rule Britannia.

I hope they have a vote and do on record.

Sadly, thought, the BBC said that there probably won't be a vote, and that these people have no power to ban Trump. It's all just some grandstanding.

I am amazed at the arrogance of this but they had better be very careful here. They are about to piss us off. And they don’t want that.

The Third Revolutionary War will be an economic one, which we can win easily. The UK will become a PC third world country controlled by their PC protected Muslims. The entire UK will become a no go Muslim controlled area.

He never said he would ban them permanently, he said stop them until we get our immigration under control.
The shooter in CA proved he was correct and yet these frigging idiots are just too dumb to understand what is being said.

The pretend “Conservative Party” government of David Cameron said it would have a debate in Parliament on any issue where 100,000 or more people signed an online petition.

The “Trump Ban” got over half a million......
