Sheffield, England: Somali mayor bans Donald Trump
from the city, by Ann Corcoran 7/6/18.
He wrote: “I Magid Magid, Lord Mayor & first citizen of this city hereby declare that not only is Donald J Trump a WASTEMAN, but he is also henceforth banned from the great city of Sheffield! I further declare July 13th to be Mexico Solidarity Day!”
Frankly,
I don’t know why President Trump is even going to the UK next week. But, my
first thoughts, when I saw this story about the Lord Mayor of Sheffield telling
Trump he is not welcome in his city, were……
So this is how Somalis behave when they
get some power?
So
this is how Somalis behave when they get in positions of some authority? Does
Magid Magid really expect us to take him seriously as a political leader?
And, is this type of behavior
why they couldn’t keep Somalia from becoming a hellhole?

Lord Mayor Magid Magid bans Donald Trump from visiting the city
The popular Lord Mayor of an English city has banned Donald
Trump ahead of the US President’s visit to the UK on July 13.
Magid
Magid, 28, has attracted significant media attention as the youngest Lord Mayor
of Sheffield, a city in South Yorkshire, the first to come from the Green
Party, and the first Somali to hold the position.
He
moved from Somalia to Yorkshire when he was five in 1994 after the Somali Civil
War broke out.
Aren’t the people of Sheffield the least
bit embarrassed?
From 2017 to 2018, Mr Magid served as Deputy Lord Mayor, and in May
2018, he was chosen by the Sheffield City Council to serve the one-year term as
Lord Mayor. The
position, which is a ceremonial one, means Mr Magid must represent the council and the
city, speak at
official functions, and undertake a range of ceremonial duties.
As
a migrant, Mr Magid has delivered sharp criticism of Donald Trump and his views
on immigration. He said on Twitter that Mr Trump is banned from coming to
Sheffield during his visit to the UK next week.
Mr
Magid posted an image of himself wearing a T-shirt with the text ‘DONALD TRUMP IS A WASTEMAN’written
across the front. He also dons a Mexican sombrero, purple Doc Martens boots and
the mayoral gold ceremonial chain across his shoulders.
Urban dictionary: Wasteman is
someone who does nothing with their life.
It
is unlikely Mr Trump would visit Sheffield during this visit, but Mr Magid says
he wants to show solidarity with the Mexican community in the city, in light of
the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance policy” towards undocumented
immigrants – many who come from Mexico.
More here. Hmmmm….wasteman! (pot/kettle)! I told
you about the Lord Mayor of Sheffield Magidhere last month.
