The leader of Britain’s opposition Labour Party, Jeremy Corbyn, said on Friday he had turned down an invitation to a state dinner which will be one of the highlights of U.S. President Donald Trump’s visit to Britain in June.
“Theresa May should not be rolling out the red carpet for a state visit to honor a president who rips up vital international treaties, backs climate change denial and uses racist and misogynist rhetoric,” Corbyn said in a statement.
The left-wing Labour leader has long railed against U.S. foreign policy and said recently that Julian Assange should not be extradited to the United States where he faces a computer hacking charge.
Corbyn said he would welcome a meeting with Trump “to discuss all matters of interest” but said maintaining ties with Washington did not require “the pomp and ceremony of a state visit.” …

Trump can have his dessert.
Somehow we’ll get over it.
Good...one less globalist shill.
BFD
Don’t need that anti-Semite to gag people with his presence.
How nice of him, along with Mrs. Prince Harry, to be so thoughtful as to stay far away from the wonderful American president. He should not be subjected to the likes of them.
Don’t worry. Nigel Farage will be PM someday, and Sargon of Akkad will be in the House of Commons after Brexit.
Someone post a list of WHO he’s actually had dinner with. Hamas, etc..
And the Brit’s think he might become PM ...
He’s disgusting.
The Air will be a lot fresher
I have to say that I’m a bit surprised.
Usually, he’s too busy with his two pals making car shows to comment on dinner seating.
They deserve him, if they elect him.
Well they voted in that muzzie for mayor of London - knife crime exploded (no pun intended) and he’s all acting like a snowflake over it - all atwitter with no practical solution or attempt at one other than banning knives with sharp points.
JFTR, prime ministers are not directly elected. The winning party chooses the PM by inside “election” as party leader.
But yes, if the voters go Labour, they’re going to get everything they deserve and worse. (Presuming no voter fraud, lol.)
I laugh at their demise. I laugh at Seattle and San Francisco and their homeless/drug problem.
I laugh when more socialism is implemented in these large cities because the results are so predictable and their proponents deny reality.
It’s funny to me because funny is better than sad.
Not bloody likely, mate. Corbyn’s a fair shot for PM and if he wins, Old Blighty is royally screwed and the pun is intended.
He’ll fill his Cabinet with Muslims out of sheer spite.
Those Brits willing to fight for their country have long been pushing up the daisies while their descendants lecture Americans about our “lax gun laws”.
