Donald Trump

Block Donald Trump Petition!

The signatories believe Donald J Trump should be banned from UK entry for his continued, unrepentant hate speech and unacceptable behaviour. His unacceptable behaviour is well documented, and we feel it foments racial, religious and nationalistic intolerance which should not be welcome in the UK.

The UK has banned entry to many individuals for hate speech. This same principle should apply to Donald J Trump. We cannot see how the United Kingdom can condone his entry to the country when many people have been barred for less.
At 10,000 signatures, government will respond to this petition.
At 100,000 signatures, this petition will be considered for debate in Parliament.

Its great that he exposes those views and they arent held private till after the vote , then its up to the electorate if they decide to vote and agree with his views , but then I suspect some voters have a perverted sense of humour about who or what they send into parliament and would happily elect a large salt water crocodile if it was released into parliament .

Trump is the best friend the Democrats have in the 2016 presidential candidacy race. He's pulling the other Republican candidates ever further right in the primary and having them make statements that they'll struggle to walk back in the Presidential election campaign, while also exposing in the most acute terms the apparent racism and stupidity of a significant proportion of the Republican base.

That man is like a right wing version of Corbyn for the Democrats right now.

But he can say what he wants in the run up. I won't shut him up. I hate what he preaches, sure, I worry he will ever have any power, but it's not our place to comment.

I thought there was a convention not to get involved in other countries politics ,I believe then pm John Major years ago caused some unease in his talks in the U.S over political considerations leading up to elections

I kind of want him to be President purely for hilarities sake, at least as long as that circus of stupidity stays several thousand miles away!

I signed the "Don't ban Trump from the United Kingdom" petition. Currently has 38,563 signatures. Trumps position on temporarily suspending travel for Muslims to the USA on security grounds is not fascist hate speech. He has a right to exercise free speech and express his opinions or thoughts...

You don't ban someone from entering the UK because you simply don't like what they said.

If Donald Trump became president the UK banning him from entry would be the very least of the world's problems. :shock:
