#TRUMP

Donald Trump has insisted Mexico will pay for the wall he wants to build along the border with the US. @realdonald­trump himself tweeted: “Mexico will pay for the wall!” @jmwolfinba­rger joked: “If Trump gets elected, Mexico and Canada will both build walls.” @Martinshov­el said: “Poor Donald Trump is so confused when it comes to dealing with Mexico, he can’t decide whether he’s building bridges... or walls” @laserboyjc wrote: “U.S. can build all the walls it wants, but it can’t make another nation pay for the tab. Not unless Trump plans to invade & annex Mexico” Hillary Clinton supporter @chirpydove posted: “I love Mexico and The People as I love America, @ Hillarycli­nton is a bridge builder she unites not like Trump who builds walls”

#BREXIT

Theresa May has put the UK on course for a “hard Brexit” leaving the common market and curbing EU migration. @Rossarmour­346 wrote: “Scotland should have a say as should Labour. Nobody will convince me May is inclusive. Authoritar­ian yes.” @2351onthel­ist said: “Can’t imagine May was amused by Sturgeon hawking herself around Europe when she has no locus in foreign affairs.” @Steve2451 wrote: “When will Nicola Sturgeon take the hint that Mrs May is diplomatic­ally telling her to butt out of things that don’t concern her?” @Maureen565­96209 said: “Brexit will happen. We voted for it. Thank God T. May doesn’t indulge herself in subterfuge like N. Sturgeon!
