UK Twitter Memes & Reaction to Queen’s Trump Invite

Queen Elizabeth, who turned 93 on April 21, has officially invited “Donald J. Trump, accompanied by Mrs. Melania Trump” to the U.K. for a State Visit and they have accepted.

2,256 people are talking about this

 

Trump’s visit is slated for June 3 to June 5 and coincides with the 75th anniversary of the D-Day landing at Normandy.

The Trumps will attend a ceremony in Portsmouth and meet with Prime Minister Theresa May at 10 Downing Street in Westminster.

During Trump’s 2018 visit, massive protests against the US President were mounted. Recall the Trump baby balloon?

People hold an anti-Trump banner while the U.S. President is visiting Trump Turnberry Luxury Collection Resort in Scotland as people gather to protest during his visit to the United Kingdom on July 14, 2018 in Edinburgh, Scotland. The President of the United States and First Lady, Melania Trump on their first official visit to the UK after yesterday’s meetings with the Prime Minister and the Queen is in Scotland for private weekend stay at his Turnberry.

Today, following the announcement from the Royal Family about Trump’s late spring visit, not surprisingly reaction by Brits is a mix of facetious mockery and outright outrage. And also not surprisingly, tweets are rife with memes accompanied by singular British humor, or humour. And anger.

Many Brexit-Weary Citizens Don’t See What’s Funny. They Don’t Want Trump in the UK, Especially During D-Day Anniversary

The Trumps and Britain’s Prime Minister Theresa May stand on steps in the Great Court as the bands of the Scots, Irish and Welsh Guards perform a ceremonial welcome as they arrive for a black-tie dinner with business leaders at Blenheim Palace, west of London, on July 12, 2018, on the first day of President Trump’s visit to the UK. – The four-day trip, which will include talks with Prime Minister Theresa May, tea with Queen Elizabeth II and a private weekend in Scotland, is set to be greeted by a leftist-organised mass protest in London.

Member of Parliament David Lammy for the Labour Party wrote:

“Deluded, dishonest, xenophobic, narcissistic, Donald Trump is no friend of Britain. He is not fit to hold public office, let alone worthy of our country’s highest honours and a banquet with the Queen. Theresa May is selling out the UK to a serial liar and a cheat. #TrumpUKVisit”

“Very disappointed our dear Queen would do this. He has emboldened racists all over the world. He attacks the free press and constantly says horrible things about elected UK officials. Let’s not forget about how he separated children from their parents at the border.Ridiculous”
