A giant balloon dubbed "Trump baby" has been given the green light to fly near parliament during the president's UK visit.

London mayor Sadiq Khan's Greater London Authority has approved a request for the flight after thousands signed a petition and a crowdfunding campaign raised more than £16,000 to get the six-metre inflatable off the ground.

I don't think I'll post a photo of the blimp. But there are a couple photos of it at the link. It is VERY disrespectful. But since it's OK with Mayor Khan, up it will go.

Example number one million that it's not Churchill's or Thatcher's UK anymore.

Wonder how the UK would feel if American tourists stopped coming?

And if Americans stopped buying goods and/or services from the UK...?

The Brits have certainly lost any claim to the civility and decorum they prided themselves on for so many centuries.

That Trump angry baby blimp, is the liberals pointing their angry fingers in the wrong direction. They are the angry ones in the last 2 years, but, they can’t face reality, therefore, they have to accuse others of what they do.

If the UK is gonna do this, then maybe American tea drinkers should gather up their Twinings and dump it into the Potomac during Trump’s visit.

Next time Britain calls on our military to save their little island, we’ll remember the disrespect shown to Republican presidents since President Reagan’s presidency.

“DO NOT engage with Nigel Farage during your visit to the UK, Mr. President. Meanwhile, enjoy an insulting and juvenile float that the Mayor of London will be flying around you.”

The Brits have concealed a lot of bad behavior behind that so-called civility.

He should point at it and laugh

Or refuse to go if they don’t remove it as a security caution

Cancel the visit!

The request to not meet Nigel is downright creepy tyrannical

Oh, no. We’ll save them and our GIs will enjoy the hospitality of their grateful ladies for a second time. That’d cheese them more than anything else.

Have a drone tow a “Free Tommy” banner behind it...and accidentally collide with the balloon.

I would love to fly a blimp over London of Mayor Khan wearing a turban with a fuse coming out it (like the infamous cartoon of mohammed) - now that will provoke an angry reaction! The Trump balloon? Meh

A foreign country interfering in our politics? Perhaps we should nuke them.

Just the usual suspects of "socialists" and assorted commies.

Sorry England, you lost any right to tell us what to do a while back when we kicked your butt. We then proceeded to save that same butt in a couple of wars which otherwise you would have sunk.

And London will sit idly by while heads are chopped off because it's, well, you know, life in the city.

Special relationship? I think not. A pathetic excuse for a country.

I’m sure there’s enough “hot air” over there to fill it up several times over.

Little Chihuahuas yapping at a visitor and hiding under the couch when he takes a step.

How low England has sunk. Petty.

This means that MAY approved it. You DON’T insult a visiting dignitary. You make his visit pleasant.

Do not invite May here. Let her get her jollies from the millions of muzzies marching in.
