Petition initiated trump prevent entry britain
You're referring to the petition to prevent Donald Trump from entering the United Kingdom.
Yes, in 2018, a petition was launched on the UK government's website calling for the then-US President Donald Trump to be banned from entering the UK. The petition was sparked by Trump's comments about the UK's decision to leave the European Union (Brexit) and his criticism of London's mayor, Sadiq Khan.
The petition, which was titled "Prevent Donald Trump from making a state visit to the United Kingdom," gained significant traction and eventually reached over 1.8 million signatures, making it one of the most signed petitions in UK history.
However, the UK government ultimately decided not to ban Trump from entering the country, citing the importance of maintaining diplomatic relations with the US. Trump did visit the UK in July 2018, although he did not receive a full state visit, which is typically reserved for heads of state.
It's worth noting that the UK government has a process for reviewing and responding to petitions, and while the government does not always act on petitions, they do take them into consideration when making decisions.
