Trump Hints Harry Could Be Deported For Past Drug Use

In an interview with Nigel Farage for GB News, Mr Trump said that there will be no preferential treatment for the Duke of Sussex if he returns to the White House in November.

Prince Harry is currently embroiled in a legal battle over his US visa application after he admitting to past drug use in his highly controversial memoir Spare. Conservative think tank the Heritage Foundation has argued that his admission that he took cocaine, cannabis and magic mushrooms in his memoir means that he should not have been allowed into the US under the country’s visa laws, which state that past drug use or criminal activity may make an applicant ineligible.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) rejected a request by the think tank in June to expedite its Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for the release of immigration records of the Duke of Sussex, arguing that there is no “public interest in disclosure sufficient to override the subject’s privacy interests”.

City finally end horror run - but bigger worries remain

It was a landmark occasion for Pep Guardiola.
