A British teenager has been banned from America for life for sending Barack Obama an abusive email.
Luke Angel was reprimanded by police on both sides of the Atlantic after firing off a drunken message to the White House, calling the president a "p****".
The FBI intercepted the message and contacted police in the UK who went to see the 17-year-old at his home in Silsoe, Bedfordshire.
Luke, a college student, is now on a list of people who are banned from visiting the States.
The teenager told the Bedfordshire On Sunday newspaper that he had sent the email after watching a TV programme about September 11.
When asked about the ban, Luke said: "I don't really care. My parents aren't very happy about it."
"The police who came round took my picture and told me I was banned from America forever."
