Half a million people have signed a petition calling for the US Presidential candidate to be blocked on 'hate speech' principles



A petition to ban Donald Trump from Britain has soared over 500,000 signatures - making it what is thought to be the most popular ever.

More than half a million people have signed the petition, which was launched after the US presidential hopeful called for all Muslims to be barred from entering America.

It says the “unacceptable behaviour” criteria used to stop hate preachers entering Britain “must be fairly applied to the rich as well as poor, and the weak as well as powerful”.

Smashing the 500,000 threshold means the demand will be considered for a Commons debate.

But Chancellor George Osborne says the former US Apprentice star will NOT be banned from Britain despite his comments.

The Chancellor attacked the White House hopeful’s “nonsense” remarks - branding him “profoundly wrong”.
