British PM Theresa May says Trump brings new era of American renewal, global leadership
Washington Times, Jan 26, 2017, S. A. Miller

PHILADELPHIA — British Prime Minister Theresa May cozied up Thursday to Republican lawmakers, saying the political wave that swept them and President Trump into power would make America a stronger and bolder leader in the world. In a speech to a congressional Republican retreat for formulating strategy, Ms. May said the upset victory by Mr. Trump and the GOP wins in the House and Senate promised “a new era of American renewal.” Ms. May, the leader of her country’s Conservative Party who became prime minister in the aftermath of the Brexit vote, also vowed that the U.S. could count on the UK to help fight terrorism and other threats around the world.

I did warn you all on another thread - she gets on with everyone (unlike Maggie, who had very strong likes and dislikes). Like Maggie, however, she always gets what she wants.

Theresa May isn’t fooling anyone. She doesn’t just talk out of two sides of her mouth, she talks out of twenty. Her conflicting position would flummox Gumby.

According to May, Islam is peaceful. Jihad imam get legal aid to fight to remain in the UK, but Theresa May banned me from the UK. Robert Spencer is banned. Why? Because we oppose jihad terror and sharia.

    by Raheem Kassam, Breitbart, January 26, 2017:

British Prime Minister Theresa May used her speech in Philadelphia to needle the new Trump administration on a number of issues ranging from globalism to climate change, Islam, and even to defending the European Union.

    Mrs. May began her speech at the Republican Retreat in Philadelphia with a brief history of Anglo-American relations, invoking the spirit of the Founding Fathers of the U.S. as well as expressing gratitude towards America’s involvement in the World Wars of the 20th century.

    But her speech was also littered with politically correct terms, as well as left and centre-left talking points regarding international institutions, Islam, and radical Islamic terrorism, the latter of which she called “Islamist extremism”.

    And Mrs. May also spoke of the necessity for multilateralism in stark contrast with the line pushed by the White House — which prefers bilateralism — over recent days. She cited the need to tackle “climate change” as one of the reasons to back globalist institutions.    ...
