Theresa May: Donald Trump wrong to criticise Sadiq Khan
bbc.com ^ | June 6 2017 | BBC

Posted on 06/06/2017 11:01:31 AM PDT by Berlin_Freeper

Theresa May has said Donald Trump's criticism of Sadiq Khan in the wake of the London Bridge terror attack was "wrong".

But the PM said the US president's state visit would still go ahead.

Mr Khan, the mayor of London, has called for it to be cancelled - as has Lib Dem leader Tim Farron.

Mr Trump attacked Mr Khan on Twitter after the mayor told Londoners not to be alarmed about an increased police presence following Saturday's attack.

The London mayor said Mr Trump was wrong about "many things" and that his state visit, expected to take place later this year, should not go ahead.

I think a better term is “Leftsplaining.”

We need to stop calling them liberals. There’s nothing liberal about them.

European leaders, like American leaders, are finding out that “cheap” labor can be expensive.

Mr Khan hasn't got a chance!

"Mr Khan and the US president have clashed several times in the past, with the London mayor criticising Mr Trump's remarks about Muslims and his attempts to bring in a travel ban against people from six mainly-Muslim countries trying to enter the US, and Mr Trump labelling him a "buffoon" and challenging him to an IQ test."

A Muslim who is mayor of London thinks Pres. Trump is wrong? That’s a stretch!

To Khan its no big deal UK gets attacked as often as he changes his sox.

Trump thought Khan is not worried, he has a protection detail but the UK folks don’t and can’t even buy a pistol for self protection.

I don’t like our leader attacked right after his prayers and condolences were sent to Brits.

No way to treat a best friend. Maybe we should take this to mean MS. May is not really a friend. She could have kept this private, and not said it publically

"The Dhimmi is the Arabic term that refers to its non-Islamic embracing population that has the ignominious dishonor of living in Islamic conquered lands."

The dhimmi has to show public deference toward Muslims by always yielding to them, they always go first.

Interesting example of this at Breitbart

A Jihadist is running the capitol of Great Britain. The PM seems to be OK with that.

Excellent Summary!

If the PC PM of England wants to start an economic war with America, then the economic devastation of the UK will make what the Germans did economically to the UK in WWII look like a little event.

Chose wisely, PM!

Political Whore, meet necessary voting block. Her most important job is to pander to anyone who might vote for her.
What a high price you pay for pandering in place of expulsion.

Given the obvious disdain held for Trump and we, his voters, what makes them think he would agree to come? The pacifists that dominate the leadership of all their parties have basically surrendered to the jhihadis turning their backs on their prime duty to keep their countrymen safe just to keep from being accused of islamiphobia. What the jhihadi’s are doing is similar to what Ghandi did by turning the UK’s laws and morals against them. Except they are using violence to accelerate the process and Ghandi was non-violent. Will the country that gave the world the magna carta ultimately surrender to a 6th century ideology squandering a proud history? Stay tuned.

Well, does Madam PM agree with his honor that terrorism is now just part of life in the big global cities of the world?

So there’s nothing to be alarmed about Ms. May?
