This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Ignore the petition calling for the prevention of Donald Trump's state visit.
As the democratically elected leader of the US, we must accept his position and build a relationship. Regardless of whether you think him right or wrong, moral or immoral, he remains the leader of the largest economy in the world, and given our current situation it is childish to think otherwise.
More details
As an elected leader, having just won an election campaign in which commitments and promises were made, it is simply not our place to cast judgment on the morality of his position when those promises are enacted.
To believe we would change either his or his voters minds by simply stopping a nice formal dinner with the Queen is also laughable, and only serves as mechanism by which our own prosperity will be damaged.
