The Donald Trump and Theresa May Holding Hands Pic of the Day

‘I like long walks in the park and free trade deals.’

May visits US - Day Two UK Prime Minister Theresa May and US President Donald Trump holding hands as they walk along the White House colonnade Stefan Rousseau / PA Wire Stefan Rousseau / PA Wire / PA Wire

PIC OF THE day indeed.

US President Donald Trump and British Prime Minister Theresa May reaffirmed the ‘special relationship’ between their two nations today, and got some quality hand-holding in as well.

The GOP and Tory leaders went for a little walk along the White House colonnade after their press conference and appear to have gotten on swimmingly.

And if you don’t believe it, here’s a full frontal shot.

    Meant to post the above comment on our Cufflinks profile !

    We use ETSY for our Cufflinks & the majority of sales come from the US on ETSY. Its is a very popular with shoppers in the states & seems to be growing at a good rate. For small shop owners in Ireland who cannot afford a website, nor have the knowledge having ETSY setting up in Ireland is very positive as they be encouraged to set up a shop. Ireland needs money & ETSY can help craft makers in Ireland export their goods. Has to be positive?

    The ability to poach experienced staff from the likes of eBay and Amazons EMEA hq’s is reason enough to move here. If it was just the tax rate they’d be in Luxemburg.

    The function of any company is to increase shareholder value. That’s no conspiracy, it’s common sense. If Ireland is able to offer effective incentives to entice companies to set up shop here, then good. Of course a company will choose where it sets up shop based on the benefits that country offers. Again, common sense. Job creation = good. A company and it’s employees contributing to the Irish economy = good. I can understand that people are less than happy in this country, but Ai don’t understand what people persist in trying to find a dark cloud behind every silver lining. Do people want this country to fail and to never recover? Can anyone give me an example of where griping bitterness and universal pessimism lead to either a economic or emotional upturn in a country?

    We’re Irish. We’re good at doing misery, with all the wailing and gnashing to teeth that goes along with it. Point proved. But it’s not going to help us any. It’s just begrudgery to the point where we’re blinded by anything good in our lives at all. Could we all just call a truce and agree to avoid the directionless whinging?
