It seems the UK really, really doesn't want Trump to meet the Queen

This is what it's like when British people tell you, politely but firmly, to bugger off. 

A petition demanding the UK government prevent U.S. President Donald Trump from making a state visit because it would be an "embarrassment" for him to meet Queen Elizabeth II has been signed 861,658 times.

"Donald Trump's well documented misogyny and vulgarity disqualifies him from being received by Her Majesty the Queen or the Prince of Wales," the petition reads.

Trump was invited to come for a state visit after he met with Prime Minister Theresa May in Washington D.C. on Friday, but his far-reaching Muslim travel ban has caused outrage on the other side of the Atlantic.

Sadiq Khan, London's first Muslim mayor, spoke out against Trump's visit. "We should not be rolling out the red carpet for President Trump," he said, according to Sky News — not while the "cruel and shameful" ban was in place.

Graham Guest of Leeds, who started the petition, told the Independent it wasn't initially intended as a counter to Trump's actions against refugees and Muslim immigrants, but now he thinks the president shouldn't come at all.

"It's added a new dimension to things and until that ban is lifted I don't think he should come to the country at all in any capacity," he said. "I mean, if he's photographed stood next to the Queen it makes him look like a statesman, which of course he's not."

Needless to say, the petition's skyrocketing popularity is causing Twitter paroxysms of joy.

The popular Twitter account @AltNatParkSer tweeted Sunday at Trump that "more people voted to ban you from the UK in the last 12 hours, than turned up to your #Inauguration."

Although the National Park Service no longer provides official crowd estimates, it seems certain that Trump's inauguration nowhere near matched President Barack Obama's record crowds of 1.8 million in 2009.

Made on the UK's official petitions website, the government is obliged to respond to petitions with more than 10,000 signatures, while parliament also considers such petitions for debate.

If parliament does take up the issue, it will not be the first time UK politicians have debated banning Trump from the country. In Jan. 2016, Members of Parliament scrapped over whether he should be barred or his unfortunate views confronted in person. Some MPs called him a "wazzock" and a "ridiculous individual."

In that case, the official government response clarified that it is up to the Home Secretary to bar an individual if she "considers their presence in the UK to be non-conducive to the public good." The current Home Secretary is the MP Amber Rudd.

The embarrassment may in fact be Trump's if he does meet the Queen, especially given his previous comments regarding her daughter-in-law Kate Middleton after paparazzi captured images of her topless on vacation in 2012. The Queen never forgets.
