Bercow BANS Trump from addressing Parliament: Commons Speaker brands US President 'racist and sexist' - but had no problem with the President of CHINA

Donald Trump faces being banned from making a speech in Westminster Hall on his state visit after Speaker John Bercow said he was 'strong opposed'. The Speaker - one of three 'keyholders' for the ancient hall who must agree to
its use - said he had been opposed to the US President addressing MPs and peers before his migrant ban. And he said the ban on migrants from seven majority Muslim countries had increased his opposition. Speaker Bercow was applauded by MPs after his intervention, prompted by a point of order from Labour MP Stephen Doughty.
