Sky News can reveal Trump has failed to comply with the costs order with Christopher Steele, the former MI6 agent who compiled the infamous document.

Trump was ordered to pay costs in February after the High Court threw out his attempt to sue Mr Steele’s company Orbis Business Intelligence.

The former president claimed the report, which included unsubstantiated allegations of bribery and that he used sex workers while on a trip to Moscow, contained inaccuracies and breached his rights under the Data Protection Act.

The judge, Mrs Justice Steyn, did not make any judgment on the allegations but ruled the claim was invalid because it was filed after the six-year limitation period. Trump was subsequently also denied leave to appeal.

    He owned the Plaza for a short period of time, and he required a cameo in order for the filming to take place in the hotel (they wanted something that looked like opulence to a child). He’s been an egomaniac for as long as he’s been “relevant”.

    Also, I fucking hate seeing his stupid face. And I hope there’s a time where he not only loses relevance, but his face isn’t shown ever again.

        Honestly I am going to take the day off just to celebrate the day he strokes out or whatever. He is an absolutely irredeemable psychopathic shitrag of a human being, and the world will be measurably better off without him.
