Bums and Stiffs indeed , a comment like that gives an insight to the kind of individuals they are, shame on you!!!!!
#####only one question where the fec is Nfyn.....must be nice to have no bums and stiffs about ......as for lifeboats ......if you came from Nfyn .....we would probably eat you ist......cappy from shields

Re: Trumps visit.
Trump was duly elected by the people, his mandate is based on what he went to the election on.
His policies on border control, and that is all it is Keith, would be well practiced by the EU, as is the case here in Oz.
All nations should have the right to sat who comes in, when and by what means.
For the UK Labor opposition and the so called Lord Mayor of London to arrange such a protest is unforgiveable.
Many other leaders of far lesser quality have been there before with no protest.
He may well like Boris and Putin, that does not in any way indicate he is attempting to interfere with UK politics, just a person opinion.
Free speech and the right to chose where you wish to go, who you wish to be associated with has been loudly spoken by the people, hence BREXIT.
Once free you will have the right to trade any where you wish and the USA will be one of the nations high on the wish list.
Trump may have upset a few, he is not a career politician, rather a business man who just wants the best for his country.
Is that such a bad thing?
Pity a few more did not follow this example.


Happy daze John in Oz.
Life is too short to blend in.

Re: Trumps visit.
I am warming to Trump , we pay 2% GDP to our country's defence , i.e our capability to respond to organisations like NATO , so does the USA , Greece , Estonia and Poland , those that don't are France , Turkey , Norway , lithuania ,Romania . Latvia Portugal , GERMANY , Italy , Denmark , Netherlands . Albania . Bulgaria , Slovakia , Croatia , Czech Republic , Hungary , Canada , Slovenia , Spain , Belgium , Luxembourg , BUT we agree to defend them , so Trump wants them to catch up , so Dormir en tout securite , Sicher schlafen , John Bull with Uncle Sam will guard the door
The protesters can call on their friends to stand by our sides , hezbollah , sin fein , Al Qaeda etc
