US citizens are allegedly fleeing Donald Trump's America (Image: Getty)
GB News host Stephen Dixon spoke this morning to Jennifer Ewing, a British-based Californian and spokeswoman for Republicans Overseas UK, about the alleged "mass exodus". He quizzed: "Are we seeing a wave of people heading over from the States, desperate to be British, to get away from Trump?"

Nearly 2,000 of these citizenship bids have been submitted in the short few months since Donald Trump took office - so does Jennifer think there's a connection? The correspondent suggested that Americans are warming to the "glamorous" culture here in Britain and enjoying high-profile events such as Wimbledon and Ascot.

It comes after a 39-year-old British man was jailed for more than seven years for "encouraging violent disorder" after making comments on social media about the Southport killings, as just one example.

"Americans don't understand: how can you be arrested or worse for praying silently?" she exclaimed, adding: "In America we have the free speech 1st Amendment and we don't have laws [against] free speech."

They think because we elected Labour that we're a leftist country who doesn't share the same views that MAGA does. Well they'll soon be leaving once Reform is elected in 4 years time."
Another added: "Lunatic liberals fleeing to the UK? I believe it."
