Theresa May: UK and US must stand strong together

Well, I for one welcome the words spoken by Theresa May at the GOP gathering.

If she is sincere, which I am hoping she is, then interventionism could well be a thing of the past.

Theresa May has told US Republicans the UK and America must "stand up for our interests" but cannot return to "failed" interventionist policies. She said: "The days of Britain and America intervening in sovereign countries in an attempt to remake the world in our own image are over."

It's about time some of those trillions, spent on offence, is re-directed to investments in industry, creating jobs and sharing the wealth. Rather than trying to open sovereign countries in order for the global corporations to get a foothold in.

Of course the proof will be in the pudding, so let's see if actions can speak louder than words!!

I like UK/US friendship.

PM May looks like she's smart.

Hope they increase trade relations.

I'll be honest, she has surprised me so far on the international stage.

She's had years of practice in the government ..... keeping a low profile and

watching what what NOT to do

That kind of talk makes me almost cry with joy.
Trump has the same attitudes.

The globalists must be panicking, or in shock.

She was a disastrous Home Secretary, maybe she should have been Foreign secretary?

Some people are making Reagan - Thatcher comparisons. Hopefully they are correct

She does lately have the knack of saying the right words in the right order.

It can only be good to highlight the positive things our two countries have done in the wider world.

I bet behind the scenes her hands were tied by Cameron and Osborne?

In a manner of speaking I would bet she was kept down by the macho

male dominated party, in case her light shone too brightly.


I think she was quite shrewd and bided her time.

Rubbish, most people in the UK are opened mouthed with shock at what's happening in the States, Trump is pretty much universally despised. My 7 year old saw Trump on the news and told me how all the kids in his class hate Trump. She's hoping to play nicey nicey to get something set up for brexit. But I can imagine as this presidency goes on, the British people wont like her costing up too much.

Yes, she isn't a member of the Bullingdon club, or Bilderbergs. Or at least not that I have been able to uncover.

Seven year old's hating?
Give me a break .....

They barely know how to write and are only repeating adults and

the likes of the recent women's protests on the TV and putting 2 and 2

together to make 5

Still goes to show how far the dislike of Trump has permeated in Britain. But I live in a racially diverse area, a lot of his school friends are muslim, me I like the fact that 7 year olds are talking politics.

I live in England and can't say I've noticed much hate of Trump most i know

are expecting a *new broom* to sweep clean. And are pleased at seeing the

back of *professional politicians*


At seven the majority of children *parrot* their parents and when they are

of age rebel and go in the opposite direction

I thought her speech was excellent and she made a lot of great points. She reminded me a lot of Margaret Thatcher.

Orwell's OCEANIA is coming then. He might have gotten it right after all.

Where do you live? I'm surprised you say that, I don't know one person, other than my religious gay hating,racist sisters who has anything good yo say about him.
But yes I can imagine alot of the kids parrot their parents so yes again goes to show Trump is hated in their homes. But the day my child rebels and becomes right wing,is the day they can move out.

The idea of getting rid of professional politicians is fine, but what's the point I. Replacing them with someone who is part of the elite. You get the same old boy network as with politicians, look at the family members and friends given jobs.

# I live in the North East

# I am an atheist (so religion doesn't equate)

# I have nothing against gays .... have a few gay friends.

# I have been called racists mostly because I believe in controlled migration.

Anything else?

a reply to: eletheia
I wasn't accusing you of anything, I was just saying literally the only person I know who likes him is religious, homophobic and racist. I'm in the North west myself, but even our small country has massive divisions. So guess I should be surprised.
