I'm from a post-industrial shit hole of even less importance than Manchester.

Shall I share the mayor of Cannock's views on international politics, too?

Highlighting your lack of knowledge of the current UK political system again. Mayor of Greater Manchester, which encompasses my home town, so by default, that would be fighting talk face to face. That aside, some reading material for you:

Judging by his expulsions, I reckon he's been on the prune juice again

Now...can we get back to Trump again please?

Try asking Andy Street, who happens to be the Mayor of the West Midlands.

It isn't historically though. Mainly because in Cannock it is still in 1842.

Er, no it isn't - politically.

Andy Street is mayor of the West Midlands county. Nothing to do with Cannock.

Don't let Trump know, he'd be onto that in a shot (if they serve cheeseburgers).

No, DB. Check the links that Blueangel and I provided. You'll just have to face up to the fact that you have a Conservative mayor.

As I don't use twitter, could someone please tweet Andy Street and ask him?

Re: Will Trump be a Good President?

... the mayor will chair a West Midlands Combined Authority which also includes Cannock Chase, Nuneaton and Bedworth, Redditch, Tamworth, and Telford and Wrekin.

Oooh, an unelected Conservative mayor, at that (read the link above)... the perfect ingredients for a revolution!

Ooh, I dunno. Would a revolution interrupt the reliable supply of mild and scratchings?
