Hi bots.
I missed your post last night but want to say you are right.
Our Parties have sought the advice of American political strategists to advise our Parties at times too.
I listed Betty Boothroyd who went to help Kennedy in 1960
I could have gone this year but I actually don't like USA politics.
Ours is bad enough.
This has gone on for decades.
For me, as long as NO MP elected to the UK parliament go over, I see no problem.
Others even if in prominent positions as members, actng individually to go and give support is fine.
It looks to me that Trump and his paranoid team, are lining up excuses in case they lose again.
To blame any and everyone ANYWHERE for the loss.
I won't Labour my Farage point again but he is now an elected MP and leader of a Party.
Yet supporting Trump publicly and actively.
Which actually again I see nothing untoward about.
Since that's seen as domething that seems fine, then why this fuss against another Party?
This has gone on from all Parties both in opposition and in government.
I frankly wouldn't be bothered even if some funding was in place.
It's actually good in my view to get active experience of other political processes in elections.
I agree obviously with what you posted above though.
