Sections of the Question Time audience erupted in applause as a guest criticized Donald Trump during a recent episode.
Bonnie Greer, a US-born broadcaster residing in the UK for many years, delivered a scathing response to a question about what the UK could learn from Trump regarding immigration, simply stating, “Nothing.”
The audience responded with warm applause and nods as Greer boldly expressed her opinion, contrasting with other panel members like James Cleverly and Piers Morgan who attempted to deflect the question.
Greer explained her stance by highlighting the decline of civility in the United States under Trump’s presidency, emphasizing the importance of due process and the rule of law in a civilized society.
She criticized Trump’s immigration policies, pointing out the arbitrary deportations and lack of regard for individual rights, particularly citing cases of individuals being sent to unrelated countries like South Sudan.
The audience in London, gathered post-Trump’s state visit, continued to applaud as discussions on immigration policies ensued, with Piers Morgan suggesting a more aggressive approach involving military intervention, echoing sentiments expressed by the US President.
As Trump departed for the US after a lavish visit with dignitaries, including Keir Starmer, a substantial tech deal was sealed between the two nations.
