But Britain has a stolid invisible war. Is it not true that thousands were
piled in French camps failing to go to Britain. In fact, there are many
walls in Europe built against Libyans, Moroccans, Asians trying to get into
Europe! Is Brexit not more about EU member states streaming more into the
United Kingdom. The point is that conservatives are conservatives on
immigration! Europe and the United States are victims of their history. One
would have thought that because China is now a burgeoning economy, it
should have the worst immigration problem. It does not. Immigration is a
real problem in the US. all governments have to deal with it.

Observer editorial
May must defend Britain against Trump’s dangerous despotism

...Sadly for May, for the people of Britain, and all those across the world
who depend to varying degrees on the leadership and support of the US
government, these achievements are likely to prove illusory. Her Washington
triumph, if that is what it was, will be short lived. On the issues that
matter most to Britain, Trump cannot be trusted. When it comes to Nato and
the future of the western alliance, he says contradictory things almost
every day. But his underlying message is that he has little use for an
organisation he views as a drain on American resources. This reflects his
hostility to multilateral collaboration of any kind, be it through trade
treaties or the UN. Like his other inarticulate, garbled blatherings,
Trump’s Nato promise is worthless...
... If Trump were an African dictator or Middle Eastern despot, a friendly
visit by the British prime minister would be seen as conferring
respectability on him and his policies and thus be deemed ill-judged. The
dilemma for Britain and the other western democracies is that arbitrary
despotism is an exact description of Trump’s flurry of divisive,
ill-considered executive orders last week. Does May, through her fawning,
flattering presence, mean to endorse Trump’s bullying, precedent-setting
treatment of Mexico, his less powerful neighbour, and his renewed vow, in a
Fox interview, to build a “real, impenetrable wall” between the two
countries? May dodged the question at the White House.
