Protesters to Greet Trump In U.K.

“Thousands of protesters are preparing to greet President Trump on his state visit to the U.K. next week, demonstrating against a range of his policies from immigration to climate change,” Bloomberg reports.

“The plan is for demonstrators to take over Trafalgar Square in central London, with the main Facebook page logging 7,600 attendees and 33,000 interested people as of Friday morning. Organizers are also trying to raise $38,000 to fly a giant balloon depicting Trump as a small-handed, diaper-clad infant — as they did during his visit last year.”

“Authorities will be mindful of at least one trend to have emerged at recent protests as the U.K. grapples with the impasse over Brexit: dousing — typically right-wing — politicians with milkshakes.”
