Trump 'disrespectful' to PM and UK, says Jeremy Hunt
Sad the chaos & dysfunction spreads.....
Donald Trump has been "disrespectful" towards the prime minister and the UK, Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt has said.
His comments come after President Trump called Sir Kim Darroch, the UK ambassador to the US, "a very stupid guy" amid a row over leaked emails.
He went on to criticise Theresa May over Brexit, saying she had ignored his advice and gone her "own foolish way".
On Sunday emails revealed the ambassador had called the Trump administration "clumsy and inept".
Meanwhile, International Trade Secretary Liam Fox's scheduled meeting with the US Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross in the US was cancelled on Tuesday.
Mr Hunt responded to Mr Trump's latest outburst by tweeting: "Friends speak frankly so I will: these comments are disrespectful and wrong to our prime minister and my country."
The Tory leadership hopeful also said he would keep Sir Kim in his post until he retires at Christmas.
SNIP:
"We have an incredibly special and strategic relationship with the United Kingdom that has gone on for quite a long time - it's bigger than any individual or government," the department added.
Earlier, Downing Street reaffirmed its "full support" for Sir Kim.
A spokesman for Theresa May said that Sir Kim is "a dutiful, respected government official" and confirmed there were no plans for Mrs May and Mr Trump to hold a call to discuss relations following the leak.
"There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

The UK & US have had a long & mutually beneficial relationship & IMHO what trump is doing/acting & insulting is wrong & there is really no excuse for what he has done, or is about to do............
Best of luck............

It's OK to Be White
We should have Trump wear one of those retard helmets at all times so foreigners understand our situation better.

Trump is being himself, we all know what he's like. But Darroch is a major league arsehole committing his thoughts to the electronic highway considering all the hackers out there. For that reason alone he should be sacked!!

Seems he quit, but that won't likely be enough to quell his wrath & stop the tweet rage..

British ambassador to U.S. resigns after leaked memos showed he criticized Trump
Kim Darroch said in a statement that the fallout from the leaked communications was "making it impossible for me to carry out my role as I would like."

Not very diplomatic for this loony diplomat.

Resigning isn't diplomatic??? Perhaps you would prefer he go on a tweet rage for days defending himself.
