Extend a warm welcome to the new President of the USA.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

There have been calls by vociferous and anti-democratic groups to cancel the President's visit. This would be unacceptable to many in the UK and seen as a major insult be the majority of US States. It would be a very unfriendly and unwise act on the part of Britain. We need democracy, not volume.
