We all remember when a week before President Trump’s working visit to Britain, the mayor of London allowed an additional participant in the city’s welcome reception: a giant orange balloon of the president depicted as a baby in a diaper.
Ironically, the group behind this angry baby Trump blimp refer to themselves as ‘anti-fascists.’
Sadiq Khan’s spokesman said the Mayor approved the blimp because he supports the right to peaceful protest.
It seems that karma caught up with him, London mayor Sadiq Khan appears not to have been invited to President Trump’s prestigious state banquet at Buckingham Palace.
Sadiq Khan’s spokesman, Jonathan Weisgard, confirmed to Newsweek: “The mayor has not been invited to the state banquet.”
Labour’s Mr Khan was left off the guest list by the Monarch, despite announcing he would be happy to meet the American. Mr Khan’s spokesman, Jonathan Weisgard, told Newsweek: “The mayor has not been invited to the state banquet.” Invitations were sent to Lib Dem leader Sir Vince Cable and Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, who both declined to attend.
Buckingham Palace confirmed last month that President Trump had accepted an invitation for a 3-day state visit in June to mark the 75th anniversary of the D-Day landings.
He will visit London as well as Portsmouth during his trip.
