JD Vance UK Fishing Trip Broke the Law
Newsweek ^ | Aug 14, 2025 | Jordan King

Posted on 08/14/2025 1:58:19 PM PDT by MinorityRepublican

JD Vance's fishing trip in England was technically illegal because British Foreign Secretary David Lammy did not have the required rod license.

The Foreign Office said Lammy described the lapse as an "administrative error," that he had written to the British Environment Agency to notify them and that he had now purchased the relevant licenses.

It is not yet clear whether Vance had a license—Newsweek has contacted his team, via email, for comment.

because British Foreign Secretary David Lammy did not have the required rod license.

The fishing trip itself broke the law???? LOL. Lammy broke the law but Newsweak wants to have a headline that Vance's trip "broke the law" so badly to suggest a Vance controversy that they twist the situation around.

So will the UK demand that Vance be extradited to stand trial? Maybe they can schedule the trial for next July to try to cast some shade on our 250th anniversary celebrations.

RE: This sounds Big Brother as hell to me.

Britain is the place where the 64 year old woman Isabel Vaughan-Spruce was arrested in 2022 and again in 2023 for silently praying near an abortion facility in Birmingham.
Law enforcement officer could tell she was thinking about a prayer.
She was accused of violating a Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) in place around the clinic. Technically she was arrested for standing silently in mental prayer within a buffer zone.
Officers were able to arrest her without calling for massive backups./S
On April 4 the Poole Magistrates’ Court on the south coast of England found Tossici-Bolt guilty, issued a “conditional discharge,” and ordered her to pay prosecution costs of £20,000 (about $26,000). She is free from jail unless she violates a law again within two years.


After public controversy she was cleared of charges.

Sh*t-stirring in its simplest form. If I was this reporter’s Editor, he’d be reporting to the unemployment line tomorrow. This is not, and never has been, considered “journalism” by any stretch of the imagination.

“””They’ve got him now!”””

Yup. He’s done. Impeachment starts tomorrow. He should resign immediately. Did he do this to distract from Epstein???? /s
