This is a first in U.S History- and keep in mind the U.K is our biggest and closest ally globally:

President Donald Trump will not be allowed to address the U.K. Parliament during his eventual state visit, The Independent reports. "An address by a foreign leader to both houses of Parliament is not an automatic right," said Speaker of the House of Commons John Bercow, a former Conservative Party member. "It is an earned honor."

Bercow went on, adding: "We value our relationship with the United States. If a state visit takes place, that is way beyond and above the pay grade of the Speaker. However, as far as this place is concerned I feel very strongly that our opposition to racism and to sexism and our support for equality before the law and an independent judiciary are hugely important considerations in the House of Commons … I would not wish to issue an invitation to President Trump to speak in the Royal Gallery." Parts of the Commons erupted into "rare" applause at Bercow's declaration, The Independent notes.

Some British politicians, including Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, have demanded Trump's invitation to visit the U.K. be canceled altogether until he revokes his ban on refugees and travelers from seven predominately Muslim nations. More than one million U.K. citizens have signed a petition demanding Trump's state visit — expected later this year — be canceled.

Who give a fuck! Let those liberal limey's squeal, there is a wind of change coming over there and her name is Theresa May. France is next with LePen. Germany is other EU country to have elections in 2017 and I'll bet they throw Merkel out on her dumpy ass.

Who give a fuck? You are in so much denial it's not even funny. You do realize the U.K is our closest ally you idiot. Can you name any other POTUS that wasn't invited to speak to Parliament? Also, Parliament is heavily controlled by conservatives or their version of conservatives. You fail to realize that Trump is a means to the end- he's being played.

WTF are you talking about? Our own politicians are doing same thing over here. Maybe there is a need for REAL change. The people have spoken as they will speak over there. We have a President that has some balls, not like that pussy Barry who went around the world blowing everyone's cock apologizing for America.

Do you know that Obama became President in 2009 and addressed Parliament in 2011? Or that Bill Clinton addressed Parliament in 1995 two years after taking office? Even Ronald Reagan had to wait a year before he got the opportunity.

So you can shove this in your ass and bring it back out in 2019.

Do you remember "The War of Independence"?

BTW: While you were nurturing your fat the Brits and the French are joining the U.S. in the international waters on both sides of the Middle East for some joint naval exercises in anticipation of Iran deciding to commit suicide. Guess who has the "land" front? Why don't you join Munchie and let the adults handle things?

I am guessing that Trump did not ask to address Parliament.

Didn't the PM pay him a visit recently? Virtual lovefest.

Little Turds like Luke Warm and Schumer are going to keep this shit up until there are NO Democrats in the Senate, and the friggin country map is blood red!!

I'm trying to remember how many times in the last 100 years we have actually needed the help of the UK. I'm pretty sure is zero. Sure, they pledged their support during Desert Storm and after 9-11. But did we need them? No.

They have needed us at least twice. Even Churchill in his famous speech did not deny it was only a matter of time before Germany invaded the UK. Luckily we showed up to save their ass...again.

Their Muslim problem will soon be on part with Germany. (How many Sharia courts are there in the UK again?)

Maybe they should reconsider who their closest ally is and do what they can to repair the relationship.

Woodrow Wilson, Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson...shall I continue?

That is the essence of Trump - he reminds them we don't need them as much as they need us.

We have oil, infrastructure, water, fancy high tech weapons, etc.

We fucking could rock if we got rid of all the fucking faggots and liberals in this country.

Trump Derangement Syndrome is strong on this thread.

I realize the OP is impervious to facts, but the title of this thread is incorrect. There was no vote, just a statement by the Speaker of the House of Commons, speaking for himself.

It's a sad case of Internet Impersonation.

He started his Impersonation by posting a fake review, the claim of which he never disputed in the Review thread (you can see he knows how to post), and continued in this forum with threatening to kick anyone's ass who challenged him, because he was a mentally and physically disabled "retired" drill sergeant, who worked in the "Mafia" as an enforcer and who was going to vote in the November 2016 election in Milan, Italy, as an overseas SERVICEMEMBER even though he was discharged previously from the Army for an injury to a gland in the center of his brain (that controlled his "weight" explaining his 400 pound size) by a piece of shrapnel that lodged NEAR HIS BRAIN while he was in combat!!!!
