By definition, the principles of democratically elected Presidents and Primes Minsters, they remain in office until there sell by date runs out.

In the case of Theresa May and Donald Trump the pertinent question is how soon thei mandate, politically will perish and there term of office become untenable.

The so called U.S.-UK special relationship is robust enough to weather short term Trans-Atlantic squabbling.

The videos in question were made some years ago and they are all based on fact, I doubt the US - UK relationship will fall apart over something which is actually in the UK's best interest I can see Theresa May disappearing first because of her poor leadership.

Theresa May government could well have run its course, businesses must now 'risk assess' and prepare for a Corbyn/McDonnell Labour government.

Taking steps to counter possible capital/currency/credit controls,and a comprehensive renationalisation of utilities.

One of the first legislative measures would be to seize private finance initiative assets deemed to be in the national interests.

Brexit pales to insignificance, when government political and economic intervention policies include a £200 billion plus program of spending, all financed by peoples QE, taxation and government borrowing.

Any thought of a visit from President Donald Trump would descend to literary cannon fodder for stand up  comedy.    

Theresa May could well be remembered as the most profoundly weak,  incompetent Prime Minster ever to take office.

To call a General Election then stand on doorsteps up and down the country selling a social care policy, that could never be seen as anything else than a dementia tax, defines a toxic shallow self-serving cynicism that displays a utter contempt for the electorate.

Britain has its own problems, and Trump isn't helping by retweeting from one of Britain's enemies

Other heads of state don't retweet the US' own hate groups, then tell the US to butt out
