Don’t allow Trump within 1000 miles of these shores, says Erdington MP

The debate comes after m ore than 570,000 people signed a petition proposing a United Kingdom ban against Mr Trump.

The petition was launched amid widespread criticism after Trump called for a ban on all Muslims entering the USA in December, and received tens of thousands of signatures in support within the first few hours. They risk inflaming tensions between vulnerable communities. “The UK is the number one destination in European Union for inward investment, the World Bank has ranked the UK as the sixth easiest place in the world to do business, so any [organization] that makes promises about investment in the UK should live up to those promises”.

The government has the power to deny entry to people with criminal convictions or those whose presence is considered not “conducive to the public good”.

SHAPIRO: There was no vote. Even those who opposed the ban condemned Trump, yet argued that its proponents are inadvertently helping him by “fueling the man’s publicity machine”, in the words of Conservative MP Victoria Atkins, the Washington Post reported.

Brokenshire then went on to mention the pros of the debate that occurred in the parliament, as it allowed them members to express themselves with justice.

In an intervention, one Conservative MP, Andrew Murrison, warned that parliament must not deliver an “almighty snub” to the U.S. and highlighted the fact that the USA might actually elect “this ridiculous man” to be their president.

SHAPIRO: And of course, some MPs embraced that suggestion.

She also offered to visit synagogues, churches and mosques in her constituency, a Labour safe seat, with the Republican candidate.

Naz Shah, MP for Bradford West, said she had sympathy with the petitioners but rejected the idea of a ban. “I want him to get a sense of the fury and the frustration with his xenophobic remarks”. Britain has hitherto not been seen as an important campaign stop on the United States primary circuit.

SHAPIRO: It wasn’t all condemnation. She argued “debating a matter raised as part of the American Presidential election” was a waste of parliamentary time.

“I think in this country we could do with rather less political correctness and more straight talking across the board”.

Although the authority to ban someone from entering the country lies with the home secretary, the British Parliamentary has somehow contributed to the US politics through the unusual argument. It came from Corri Wilson of the Scottish National Party.

But she handed Mr Trump an “open invitation” to enjoy a curry in Bradford, the “curry capital of Britain”.

She said Trump was a danger to public safety and her constituents were anxious, as hate crimes had risen in line with the rise of such rhetoric.
