Not answering the question 18 times. Imagine if it was President Donald Trump who had done this rather than Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
Imagine that President Donald Trump or Prime Minister Theresa May failed to answer a simple question 18 times.

However as it was the Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, not a word on the BBC, because Justin Trudeau is a BBC favourite, along with Hillary Clinton and any Labour politician that they think might win an election for the UK Labour Party. I see sheer arrogance in the way that Prime Minister Trudeau doesn't answer the question, avoiding doing so 18 times. Will anyone actually h... more »
