They should cancel, and the Congress should send apology on behalf of the United States. Trump is a disgrace, and our allies need to be assured Trump does not speak for the nation.
Wimp. Can't take a little tough guy jousting? Who the h*** cares about inappropriate? This terrorism and a tougher more complete reaction is an existential situation. Inappropriate, really?
Would it be an equal comparison if let us say a NYC mayor said the same thing about the UK Prime Minister?
Or does the London mayor have a higher level of gravitas?
My thinking is that the voice of a mayor should not have any real effect on clearly national level decision. But that is just the Federalism in me talking. Maybe in UK the London mayor plays a more national role than a NYC mayor would in the USA.
I hope the mayor doesn't. The only time we get any relief from Trump's inappropriate behavior is when he's overseas.
I respectfully disagree. Trump may decide to shove PM Theresa May down the stairs or slam a door in her face. British bookmakers should take bets on what Trump will pull.
Offering support by doing what? More apologies and lighting candles and holding hands and changing our profile pictures to the union jack? This is the mayor who said that these attacks are just part of life in a big city. Well, there you have it then, Mr. Khan. Just another day in London, huh? Maybe, unfortunately, thanks to people like you.
How about we start telling it like it is? Even Theresa May said after this that things need to change in the UK. She's right, and it's not just the UK where things need to change.
No, he said being PREPARED for attacks is part and parcel of living in a big city.
Quote:
“That means being vigilant, having a police force that is in touch with communities, it means the security services being ready, but it also means exchanging ideas and best practice”, Mr Khan told the Evening Standard shortly before a meeting with New York mayor Bill de Blasio.
"“I don’t think we should roll out the red carpet to the president of the USA in the circumstances where his policies go against everything we stand for,” Khan said in an interview "
The London Mayor has no say on the issue, it's the Queen via the Government that has invited Donald Trump.
They should cancel, and the Congress should send apology on behalf of the United States. Trump is a disgrace, and our allies need to be assured Trump does not speak for the nation.
Well, he apparently speaks for 10s of millions of people sadly. But those people are a deluded cult.
