British MPs debate whether to ban Donald Trump from entering the UK

British politicians lined up on Monday to throw shade at the Republican presidential frontrunner.

Immigration Minister James Brokenshire said Trump’s suggestion to ban Muslims ignored the fact that Muslims themselves are victims of terrorism.

Similar to American law, British law requires Parliament to put any topic to a debate if the petition reaches 100,000 signatures. Instead they vied to offer the most eye-catching putdown.

The MP for Newport West said he intends to pay a “heartfelt tribute” to the United States as the “home of democracy” and will seek to represent the “anger of petitioners” over Mr Trump’s views on Mexicans, Muslims, global warming and guns.

About 50 of the UK’s 650 members of parliament were present for the debate.

The debate came as a result of his comments on Muslims.

“These are very inflammatory times that we’re living in”, she said.

The Urban Dictionary suggests it may have originally meant “bull’s penis”, but to most Brits wazzock just means idiot.

But Labour’s Tulip Siddiq claimed there had been a rise in hate crimes since Mr Trump’s comments and branded him a “corrosive and poisonous man”.

The evidence of Mr. Trump’s offenses included proposing a temporary ban on Muslim visitors or immigrants to the US, his accusation that Mexico sends rapists and other bad elements of its society to the USA, and his mocking of a disabled reporter. “His words are not comical, his words are not amusing”. His words are not amusing. They risk inflaming tensions between vulnerable communities.

In December 2015, the UK Prime Minister, David Cameron called Trump’s statements “useless, wrong and hate provoking”. I draw the line at freedom of speech when it actually imports violent ideology which is what is feel is happening.

Some 40,000 people have also signed a petition calling for Trump not to be barred, saying comments made on the US election trail do not concern Britain and citing possible complications to future US-British ties.

Members of the United Kingdom parliament think Donald Trump is “dangerous”, a “fool”, and a “buffoon”, with “bonkers” policy ideas. “But he is not free to be a risky fool in Britain”, Labour lawmaker Jack Dromey said, using an acronym for the Islamic State group.

According to the BBC, Conservative Home Secretary Theresa May has banned more than 200 people since 2010.

“I have heard of a number of cases where people have been excluded for incitement, for hatred”.

Later speaking to the Independent the MP said: “I’d have a proper laugh with him”.

“We must confront his words of prejudice, of lack of knowledge, of intolerance and what we should greet him with is a welcoming hand of friendship and knowledge and truth and then, perhaps, more shameful walls of prejudice will come tumbling down”.
