Selfish lefties like Sadiq Khan are putting themselves before the national interest as they seek to deny Donald Trump’s visit
It doesn't matter who the president is, we always need to have a good relationship with the U.S. because it’s such an important country
I WONDER if the US President, Donald Trump, will ever visit the UK? Looks a bit doubtful to me.
His visit has already been indefinitely postponed. We’re told now that the earliest he might come is in 2018.
The problem, of course, is the screeching lefties. People who cannot bear to hear any views which oppose their own.
And when they do, they shriek and stamp their feet and take to the streets hurling insults. Never has our country had such a large bunch of self-indulged toddlers dictating what happens and what doesn’t.
We always need to have a good relationship with the US because it’s kinda an important country, you know. Doesn’t matter who the president is, or what his politics are.
We need to talk to him. Tell him what WE think.
And we need to treat him with the dignity deserving of the most powerful man in the world. And we need him more than ever now that we are negotiating our withdrawal from the European Union.
Donald Trump thought Brexit was a great idea and promised us good trade deals. Boy, do we need an ally like that at the moment.
But the lefties keep squealing. Anyone they don’t agree with — ban ’em. These supposed liberals are the least tolerant people on the planet.
First they got up a petition to stop him coming. Then they persuaded lefty MPs to raise the matter in the House of Commons.
The London Mayor, Sadiq Khan, has stuck his minuscule oar in.
Screeching lefties cannot bear to hear any views which oppose their own
He says it would be “inappropriate” for Trump to be given the red carpet treatment, given that lots of Brits disagree with him. He also said of Trump: “If you somehow think it is not possible to be a Muslim and a proud Westerner, I am happy to disabuse you.”
Pompous berk. Three points. First, Trump has no problem with Muslims who are “proud” Westerners.
He’s just tried to stop the flow of Muslims into the US — Muslims who, I think it’s fair to say, are not always “proud Westerners”.
MOST READ IN OPINION
And the second point, Sadiq, is this. You’re actually NOT happy to disabuse him, are you? You don’t want him to come. It’s like putting your fingers in your ears, shouting, “La, la, la, la!” because someone is saying something you don’t like.
Third, you’ve been happy to welcome Muslim leaders, imams and so on to the UK.
Believe me, mate, lots of British people disagree with THEM. And I heard no moaning from you when other world leaders with questionable views, such as Indian PM Narendra Modi, visited the UK.
Ol’ Narendra makes Donald Trump look like Nick Clegg. Ask him what he thinks of Muslims, Sadiq.
So you’re a hypocrite as well as a pompous berk. Winning combination, Mr Mayor.
I’m not Donald Trump’s biggest fan, by a long margin. I’d probably have voted for him over that stone-faced automaton, Hillary Clinton. But I’d have preferred the left-wing Bernie Sanders to both.
But that’s not the point. We can’t have our international relations dictated by the tantrums of perpetually furious children.
We should have Trump over as soon as possible and give him the full red carpet treatment.
Sadiq Khan can serve the drinks on the terrace, if he promises to behave.
The joy of sexism
THINKING of forming a new pressure group – The Society for the Preservation of Gratuitously Sexist Advertising.
We would campaign to keep some of the stuff The Sun showed yesterday.
Especially that attractive lady on a poster for the organ donor campaign: “. . . probably your only chance to get inside her”.
The point of ads like these was the humour. They made people laugh.
Apart from that small sector of the population that likes to be permanently offended and outraged.
- INDONESIANS are the laziest people in the world, apparently. They take fewer steps each day than anybody else, according to a new survey.
That’s probably because it’s a collection of small islands. You could cross, say, Bali or Lombok in about three paces.
If the Indonesians are going to get themselves fit, they’ll have to run on the spot.
The Saudi Arabians are the second laziest, probably because half of them are amputees. The most active? The people of Hong Kong and China, of course. Always scurrying around, doing stuff. Like hamsters on speed.
We do OK – we’re quite active. More active than the French, which is the important thing.
Tell 'em where to Viagogo
MORE on Viagogo – the horrible ticketing agency conning thousands of people out of thousands of pounds.
I’ve heard lots of your stories since I wrote about the scumbags last week. Such as reader Lisa Speight from Kent.
Thought she was paying £262 to see Ed Sheeran, she ended having £2,122 taken from her account.
Shocking rip-offs are Viagogo’s business – and often your tickets are not even valid. Anyway, there are several victims’ Facebook pages, including Victims of Viagogo, which will give you tips on how to get your money back.
There’s also the FanFair Alliance which is fighting against these sharks.
Oh – and I’ve found out where Viagogo is based in the UK.
This secretive organisation has its base at 71 Fenchurch Street, London. Why not go there, drop in and say hi? Take a picnic with you.
- APPARENTLY, Kermit the Frog is a bit of a bastard. The cloying green Muppet thing writes nasty letters attacking people.
And he’s become a “bitter, angry, depressed victim”.
I always knew there was a dark side to the creature. Anyway, it’s all the fault of puppeteer Steve Whitmire, who voiced Kermit – until he was fired recently.
The Muppet creators want Kermit to go back to being a really nice frog.
And Steve wasn’t the man for the job.
Mind you, I’d feel depressed, angry etc. if I had to shag a pig.
Wild up north
GOOD news – the beautiful lynx may be about to return to the UK. Plans have been submitted to Natural England to release six of the animals in Northumberland.
They last roamed our forests a thousand years ago. Some farmers are upset – when, actually, are they not upset?
But lynx rarely attack sheep – and the farmers would be compensated.
It would also provide a huge boost to local tourism. The lynx come from Sweden, so they’re probably very well- mannered animals and can bring their own flat-pack furniture.
- SO, at last we have a female Doctor Who.
Have to say, I’ve been celebrating ever since the news came through.
To hear the Lefties go on about it, you’d think we’d just given women the vote.
But there’s still a problem for the BBC.
How come the Daleks are all male? It’s about time the Doctor’s gravest enemies entered the modern world. Female Daleks, please.
Plus, at least one transitioning Dalek. A black Dalek. A Muslim Dalek in full veil.
And a disabled Dalek – on crutches because one of its little wheels has snapped off or something.
- LOVELY hot summer’s day on the beach.
Ruined, though, by some selfish jackass zooming around on one of those bloody jet skis.
This meant that a huge section of the beach was out of bounds for the kids who wanted to swim and paddle. And the noise, like 5,000 angry bees, got on everyone’s nerves. And the exhaust fumes.
When are we going to ban these horrible devices? Or just designate one or two stretches of water where they can act like big kids to their heart’s content. I suggest the Niagara River, in the US.
