The only pathetic thing is believing the British people believe newspapers. Clearly you have never been here or even met a Brit.

The British public know exactly what Trump has said, and whilst many dislike him, many like him and his honesty. The British people have 24/7 media and are frankly better educated and knowledgeable about US and world affairs than the people of your country. Remember the man is half-British (Scots mother). And owns substantial UK assets.

If you think the British people weren’t sickened by the Lee Rigby killing, you REALLY know nothing about the UK.

London has always been multi-ethnic, its a city after all, the ethnic changes (since 1948) only confuse silly Yanks who think its still all Sherlock Holmes, gor blimey guvnor and thick fog.

The British people are WELL AWARE of the problems the UK faces. Again, the only one without a clue is you.

I have been to the UK every year for the past 25 years. I have watched the changes and heard the opinions. I watch London based financial news virtually every night. And from time to time I read the dribble in the papers. Generally the View of America comes from the papers including the online versions, like the Daily Mail or the TV.

My latest issue with the UK is this asinine concept of banning people for free speech in another country. And then to get the free speech totally wrong. I listed to your PM and the head of the Labour party both say ridiculous and basically incorrect things about Trump.

England would need to ban most of the world if they wanted to ban every individual that says something offensive. This is Chinese or North Korea crap. Which makes English politicians and England offensive.

Ok, but it's not just London, what about towns like Bradford?
