BRITISH PARLIAMENT DEBATES BANNING DONALD TRUMP FROM UK

Friday, January 15, 2016 Posted by Anonymous No Comments

The British Parliament will next Monday debate whether to ban U.S Republican presidential front-runner, Donald Trump from the country.

The businessman turned politician faced a backlash after he called for Muslims to be temporarily barred from entering the United States and said that parts of London are "so radicalized the police are afraid for their lives.”

According to PerSecondNews, Donald Trump's comments spawned petitions to block him from entering the U.K. signed by more than 570,000 people, prompting Monday's debate.

Trump's mother, Mary Anne, was born on the remote Scottish island of Lewis, and the business mogul is a sometime visitor to the United Kingdom’s shores.

Trump owns two golf resorts in Scotland — the Trump International Golf Links, near Aberdeen in the northeast, and the Turnberry Resort in the west.

The home secretary can ban non-European Union nationals from Britain if their presence is considered “non-conducive to the public good.”

However, there is no requirement for the results of Monday's debate to be implemented.

Trump threatened to pull $1 billion of investments in his golf courses in Scotland “and all future investments we are currently contemplating in the United Kingdom” if he is banned from the country.

“Westminster would create a dangerous precedent and send a terrible message to the world that the United Kingdom opposes free speech and has no interest in attracting inward investment,” the Trump Organization said in a statement.

"This would also alienate the many millions of United States citizens who wholeheartedly support Mr Trump and have made him the forerunner by far in the 2016 presidential election.”

Prime Minister David Cameron has said he ”completely disagrees” with Trump’s comments,describing them as “divisive, unhelpful and quite simply wrong" but said he did not want to ban Trump from the country.

A government response to both petitions says:

“The Government recognizes the strength of feeling against the remarks and will continue to speak out against comments which have the potential to divide our communities, regardless of who makes them. We reject any attempts to create division and marginalization amongst those we endeavour to protect.”
