I do not respect the man, but I respect his office and he should welcomed here the same as any leader.

Well said Livia , he is also coming to commemorate the soldiers who gave their lives on D Day surely that deserves some respect , like you I am not a massive fan but from what I see at this time ,Britain is being far more childish and disrespectful than he is , we need to stop being so immature and welcome him as we have all the other undesirables we have had here, I 've seen grown ups on TV today acting like little children ,it's most embarrassing, getting all excited over a stupid balloon, the Americans must think we are right barm pots.
