RALPHOW:
UK iS in trouble, Majority of the Signature will be from Muslim dominated area. This minority or refugees now dictates for UK.

Don't be a fool. Are the protesters in the US also muslims?

[b]You're missing the point. By making such a broad, blanket ban, Trump has actually stopped people who were already in the US legally with H1B visas and Green Cards (aka permanent residents), got those by having multiple degrees from top schools, and are doing important highly skilled work at companies like Google, Apple, Microsoft and many others. If these people happened to be overseas at the moment whether visiting family, or on a business trip, or on vacation, they're getting stopped and not allowed to come back to what has been their home for at least 10 years in the case of Green Card holders.

To obtain an H1B work visa, you go through a pretty stringent background check already. To obtain a Green Card, you go through a 6 months FBI led background check. this process, it is extensive and daunting.

These people not only are not terrorists now, or at risk of becoming terrorists later, they are contributing immensely to USA. Many of them had unique skills that their employers could not find in the US(similar to what Facebook said in his post). For an employer to hire someone and sponsor them for a Green Card costs upwards of $20k more than just hiring someone local, and way more than that in inconvenience and time. They don't do this unless they don't have other options.

So this is not a well thought out and temporary move. It's a disaster for thousands of families who have been living in the states and contributing to the society, just because they happen to have been born in one of these countries.

Knowledge is free. Seek it and don't let bigotry blindfold you.

You do know just about anyone with an Internet-enabled device can sign that petition. Even if the person is not living in the UK.

The May government knows better than barring Trump from making a state visit.

So, all these petitions are hogwash.

They're not banning Trump from visiting, just making sure he doesn't get a state visit. He won't get a state visit by the looks of things.

Why is it that since Trump got elected as the president it has raised up a lot of controversies. This is the right man for the time and modernism is seriously fighting against him. Thank God for Trump. Wishing you better days ahead.

Oga read what I wrote.

Pay attention to the sentence in bold

The May government knows better than barring Trump from making a state visit.

To your prediction. He would get a state visit. Downing Street is not stupid or emotional like the turban-wearing petition voters.

Oh dear, Downing Street beat me to it -- http://metro.co.uk/2017/01/30/uk-government-rejects-call-to-cancel-donald-trumps-state-visit-6414264/.

Seems you guys would have to strap bombs to your chests and await his visit now.

I wonder why some people like to weep more than the bereaved. What will singing petition against Trump accomplish? The man made an election promise, now he's fulfilling it. So what's all the signing of petition and noise making about.

Who loses out if he doesn't get a state visit? Looks like the morons signing it don't even know the consequences of their actions. They probably don't want to lose the support of their biggest and most important ally.

Signing of the signature more than 10 thousand only means that the parliament will delibrateon the issue and not a conclusion that Trump will be prevented in making a state visit to the UK. So why all the hassle?

While Theresa May has been to the USA already to suck his d**k, deluded British public are signing petition. It doesn't seem like she has got much clue on what she and her cabinet are doing about Brexit. She's looking up to Donald Trump for Brexit blueprints.
