Is it essential to suck up to his ego in order to get a trade deal or is this just short sighted thinking that will end up with the UK being screwed over like other countries and the staff he sacks at the first sign of difficulties? Will we just be a dumping ground for GM food, Chlorinated chicken, over priced drugs, stroid filled beef, and all the other shite banned in the EU.

Parliament has hardly covered itself in glory the last few months, years even so does it really matter or should a stand be taken?

When the places holding D Day memorial events don't want him visiting should his visit be cancelled anyway?

Or should we just accept the fact he was voted into office despite his lies, lack of respect, childishness, racist, sexist bigotted ignorant nonsense and everything else?

I guess the question that begs asking is "Why does Trump need to address the UK Parliament in the first place"

I think it is just an old tradition extended to heads of state on occasion or something granted when requested.


Here is a list of past speakers for reference

As if the UK is without its own political problems? Anyone should be allowed to speak anywhere, if you disagree dont attend, very simple.
