Trump praises 'great' Johnson after controversial parliament suspension move

Washington, Aug 28 (AFP) President Donald Trump on Monday praised "great" British Prime Minister Boris Johnson after his controversial move to suspend parliament. Trump said the suspension -- which critics call a deliberate attempt to stymie democratic opposition to Brexit -- will make it "very hard" for Labor Party leader Jeremy Corbyn to seek a no-confidence vote against Johnson.

"Especially in light of the fact that Boris is exactly what the U.K. has been looking for, & will prove to be 'a great one!' Love U.K.," Trump tweeted. (AFP) PMS
