Luxor has both Christian and Moslem communities and the politics of the Middle East are equally diverse. Air your views on the situation.

They've certainly gone bonkers over the pond :lol:

"GCHQ may have helped Barack Obama spy on Donald Trump, the White House press secretary suggested on Thursday.

Sean Spicer, communications director for Mr Trump, repeated a claim – initially made by an analyst on Fox News - that Britain's spy agency was used by Mr Obama to spy on Trump Tower, noting: "He’s able to get it and there’s no American fingerprints on it."

The president is under increasing pressure to justify his claims, which his opponents charge calls the whole integrity of his administration into question. "

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/03 ... ed-barack/

Sean Spiicer says :

"Last on Fox News, on March 14th, Judge Andrew Napolitano made the following statement, quote, 'Three intelligence sources have informed Fox News that President Obama went outside the chain of command. He didn't use the NSA, he didn't use the CIA, he didn't use the FBI and he didn't use the Department of Justice. He used GCHQ. What is that? It's the initials for the British intelligence finding agency. So, simply by having two people saying to them president needs transcripts of conversations involving candidate Trump's conversations, involving president-elect Trump, he's able to get it and there's no American fingerprints on this. Putting the published accounts and common-sense together, this leads to a lot.'"

Aaaah....Fox News! It must be true then ;)

Judge Napolitano works for Fox News and is a rabid Trumpophile.

Unsurprisingly, GCHQ have utterly denied the accusation.

Hey ho....

The US has reportedly formally apologised
after the claims were made that the UK had helped Barack Obama to spy on Donald Trump in the run up to his election as president.
In a rare statement, GCHQ rubbished the claims as ‘nonsense’ and ‘utterly ridiculous’ adding that they ‘should be ignored’.

British spies break silence to rubbish ‘utterly ridiculous’ claims by Donald Trump
It was drawn into the controversy when the American president’s official spokesman repeated the allegations.
Now, according to the Daily Telegraph, the US has formally apologised. They said that Mr Spicer and US National Security Adviser General McMaster have apologised over the claims
