    Conservative leadership contender Jeremy Hunt says he won't say if Donald Trump's tweet was racist because he is the UK's "diplomat in chief" and is "responsible for the transatlantic relationship" http://bbc.in/2xQeQAw pic.twitter.com/KXWKlkNcTr

        I wish there was a trapdoor we could open and they'd all disappear down it. The imagination goes into overdrive when I think of the Tory government.

        Trump seems perfectly capable of criticising the UK, criticising the UK PM, forcing the UK Ambassador to resign ….. yet we're too scared to call him out on his vile hatred? This sounds a bit one-sided @Jeremy_Hunt ?

        So what he is saying is Trump and walk all over us and he can't complain because we are going to be in such a weak position. So much for taking back control

        Not just Trump but the whole world. In the past the Tories sold off the family silver, now they are intent on selling off the country's soul.

        Is this the same @Jeremy_Hunt, who said that it is very important for friends to tell friends, when they are going wrong?! This doesn't apply to 🇸🇦,🇮🇱 or 🇺🇸. He just sucks up to them, ignores their wrongdoing & calls THAT 'diplomacy'! Odious crook. Hopefully to be sacked as FS!

        I mean in fairness as much as I loathe the bloke and think he’s a weasel for refusing to call out blatant racism. He has made it clear he thinks it’s wrong.
