It's difficult to dislike anyone who voted Leave - but it's well worth the effort.
The Tories will screw this up and then afterwards blame everyone but themselves.
I find it entirely appalling that the Tories are using EU citizens legally resident in the UK as a bargaining chip.. And especially as many EU citizens work in the NHS and OAP homes for about the lowest wages possible..
And many UK citizens who living in the EU are retired and I'm sure would probably struggle if they have to return to the UK.
But then again Tories do like hurting people.

I pity the poor nice old Queen if she has to receive him.
I think it's Stephen Colbert who told the Queen in one of his shows a couple of weeks ago to be very cautious about Trump traveling in the same carriage as her. Stephen told her: If he stretches his hand towards you, Majesty, quick!! roll off the carriage!!!! (an allusion to Trump grabbing women by you know what)

Perhaps the UK officials don't want to see the man that trashes nations around the world, but they aren't as direct as him.

He was offered a state visit by 'May'. This is the most prestigious, and the cheapest for him. He'd best avoid visiting Europe and Blighty in the next few months to avoid public demonstrations against him.
The link below is very interesting.

The US president was offered a prestigious visit to be Britain when Theresa May visited the White House back in January. The invitation was accepted by Mr Trump, but there are rumours he changed his mind amid reports that large-scale protests were being planned. (https://heatst.com/politics/show-your-rump-to-trump-plans-nationwide-mooning-during-presidents-uk-visit/ ) Today, at the State Opening of Parliament, the Queen did not mention the US President’s visit as she set out her official plans for the year.

And Liam Warriner, on hearing that the royal motorcade was near his place of work, 22-year-old Warriner ran out and lowered his trousers and underwear before raising his shirt to reveal the flag held between his buttocks, Brisbane magistrates court was told. Britain's other self-propagating elitists be warned – Warriner reportedly plans to move to the UK later this year. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2012/feb/14/man-who-mooned-queen-fined
