No it's only racist for the USA to secure their border, It's perfectly ok for us to though.

The racist element is because Trump has lumped every single Mexican into the group of murderers,thieves and rapists .From a practical point of view the idea is just absolutely ridiculous ,it's the sort of idea that someone on an internet forum with no experience in politics or running a country has as a solution to illegal immigrants.If a wall of that size was possible or practical don't you think it would have been built by now?and what happens when the next President in 4 yrs time tears it down or at least the bit that has been built because he won't build that in under 4 yrs .Instead of idiotic ideas like building a thousand mile wall maybe he should look at the companies that employ the illegal immigrants ,start fining them heavier, but that would upset his pals

You're cherry picking again, he said they were thieves, rapists, murderers but the donald assumed some of them were good people

See the leaders are trying to rebuild the 'special' UK/US relationship; that'll be easy with a narcissistic, megalomaniac (and a nutter in the US) :D

Maybe we can import water boarding of the muslamics like what Donald likes.

If Sturgeon gets her way and Scotland ends up as the boarder with the EU we'll have to put this one back in good repair:

Apparently, there's little evidence that it takes place here. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news...w-tory-9494165

We do have the occasionally allegation of voter fraud but not of the widespread voter fraud Trump is claiming. For 5 million illegal votes to be cast it would require thousands of people to be in on it because of the way American voting is decentralised. You can't turn up and cast a vote, you need to be registered. So either millions of people commuted identity fraud to vote as someone else without getting caught or the ballots were stuffed which would require the cooperation of hundreds of staff across district and state lines.

That's what I thought after the allegations of Russian interference.

However, Mick has posted this:

Getting a little bit sick of the left saying border control is racist : No it is not racist. A border is a border FFS.

The State Departments Senior Management have all quit: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.860cfa242dac

Alex Jones, of InfoWars, is now a member of the White House Press: http://mediamatters.org/video/2017/0...iefings/215136 although the source for that is Jones himself so take it with a massive pile of salt until he actually appears there asking about the lizard people.

The US\Mexico wall isn't going to require all thousand miles to be built because there is already a wall in places amounting to about 400-450 miles all Trumps going to do is finish the job. I honestly don't think it's a subject the UK has any right to get self righteous about given our stance on illegals so probably best for no one to throw stones while we are in the greenhouse. It's curious that in the modern world a leader stating he is going to put the interests of his nation first gets slammed for it globalisation really did become entrenched without many realising it. Rather then jump on any of the miriade of bandwagons regarding Trump I'm prepared to give him some time and judge him on what he does now.
