Please note that President Yahya Jammeh's trip to
Scotland was NOT a state visit. At no time, was he
received by Prime Minister Tony Blair or Her Majesty
Queen Elizabeth II. For such trip to be categorised as
State Visit, President Yahya Jammeh should have been
given the following treatment;

(1) A 21 gun Salute at St James's Park.

(2) A trip to Buckingham Palace

(3) A trip to Downing Street to see Prime Minister
Tony Blair

(4) A dinner and banquet to be held at either
Buckingham Palace or Balmoral.

With regards to President Jammeh's trip to Scotland,
he was here to attend the Commonwealth's Head of
States Annual Summit. Perhaps, it would be best if WE
equate President Yahya Jammeh 's visit to Scotland to
that of Fidel Castro's annual visit to New York on
UN's Annual Meeting of Memberstates.

Just an honest thought, no hard feelings
