Hopefully everything will go smoothly regarding our special relationship.
Putting aside the Trump, we do have a unique relationship that Europeans hate and envy .
Our security ties are probaly saving lives.
Our sharing of cultural likes, such as music , books, film have united us for decades.
They have been at our side, when many have faltered ,and us by theit's, we need to be carreful what we wish for , presidents come and go, history and partnership,culture and friendship remain .
President Trump drives a bulldozer through the government's central claims about their compromise - that the UK would be able to get decent trade deals with the wider world, while sticking to the EU rules.

Brexiteers who think we are getting 'bullied' by the EU are salivating at the thought of a nice fair deal with US.
Really tells you how far outside of reality these people are living.
Donald trump interviewed in The Sun.
Ah it must be true 😂😂😂😂
No surprise here, what happens in the event of a hard brexit?
Uk is massively weakened, meaning we would be good cap in hand to the USA for a trade deal and would get completely reamed.
E.U. slightly weakened - good for USA as it maintains their position as top dog, and good for Russia as a weaker EU isn't likely to deal with them as strongly
Amazed that the poster who never wastes any opportunity to inform us of the minutiae of American politics has had nothing to say for over thirty hours about the President's bizarre, concerning, deceitful and contradictory (all down to "fake news" of course) utterings during that time;-

It's an open forum, you are allowed to contribute to the topic as a timelines develop. Taking digs at other posters is the cheap shop, even though I myself can't resist it from time to time :biggrin:
Thank you for updating the most events, it was better late than never!
Yes nice old Obama ,didnt he suggest we would be at the end of queue when it came to trade deals with the USA ? argh that's was nice of him, hey ,did we have a blow up image of him, I just can't remember ?? anyway that old special relationship just keeps giving .
Well perhaps we should be consistent with all visitors ,we have had many awful dictators, and un democratic ones, on our shores,where were the blimps then, or is this a slecfic time and plotical comment where we are selective in who we dislike ,depending on the political divide, our capital city happens to sitting on .
For instance would we see one of Putin floating above the capital ?
