Donald Trump’s son declares UK democracy 'all but dead' due to delays to Brexit

DONALD Trump’s son has declared democracy in the UK “all but dead” due to the failure to implement Brexit on time.

In an astonishingly personal attack on Theresa May, Donald Trump Junior slammed her for promising “on more than 50 separate occasions that Britain would leave the EU on March 29”.

Writing on the Telegraph website he added: “She needs to honour that promise.”

Trump Junior lashed out at Mrs May for ignoring the advice of his dad, who last year advised her to sue the EU over its approach to negotiations.

Brexit should have taken “only a few short months” to sort out but instead has “become a year-long stalemate, leaving the British people in limbo,” the US President’s son wrote.

It comes a week after Trump senior made his latest intervention on Brexit – it was “tearing the country apart”.

He said he was “surprised” at how badly Brexit had gone and observed that both sides were “cemented in”.

He also claimed that another referendum would be “unfair”.

Meanwhile Trump’s national security adviser John Bolton last night told Sky News that the US was “ready to go” with a landmark US-UK trade deal.

He said a bumper trade deal could be struck “quickly,” adding: We want to partner with a newly independent Britain.”
