Manchester: Protesters object to Donald Trump's state visit Protesters in Manchester gather to object to US President Donald Trump's official state visit of Britain. The day began with controversy as, even before his plane touched down, the president lambasted London Mayor Sadiq Khan who compared Trump to 20th-century fascists. Demonstration organisers are hoping for a repeat of the protests the next day and will once again fly a bright orange "baby Trump" inflatable.
