London's mayor will not bus in cheering crowds and throw a parade if and when Trump visits.
NO sword dance with London's mayor! NO well-done steak with ketchup! NO ride in the Queen Mum's Golden Chariot! Why the hell even bother to visit???
Sadiq Khan, the mayor of London, has said the British government shouldn't “roll out the red carpet” for U.S. President Donald Trump.
Trump is set to make a state visit to Britain at an unspecified point in the future but, Khan said in an interview with CNN Monday that “State visits are different from a normal visit.”
"At a time when the president of the U.S.A. has policies that many in our country disagree with, I am not sure it is appropriate for our government to roll out the red carpet," he said.
The Guardian reported in June that Trump was postponing his visit to the U.K.—which had been expected relatively early in his presidency—until there was a lesser possibility he'd have to face protests during his trip.
