With banners stating “No to racism, no to Trump,” around 3000 individuals marched along Regent Street towards Parliament.

Among the protesters were those holding miniature versions of the Trump baby blimp, an orange caricature of the blond leader in a diaper, which gained attention during his initial visit in June 2019.

Others carried signs reading “No to Trump, no to fascism” and “Dump Trump.”

The crowd booed a counter protester who held a sign that read “We Love Trump”.

The number of people participating in the march was much smaller than six years ago, when Trump visited London during his first term.

This visit mostly bypasses the city by scheduling royal events at Windsor, a town roughly 32 kilometers to the west, and at Chequers, the prime minister’s countryside residence where Trump will meet with Starmer on Thursday.

Trump and first lady Melania took a helicopter ride to Windsor Castle, received by the king, and enjoyed a carriage ride through the sprawling royal estate as military bands performed both the US and UK national anthems.

Dozens of protesters took to the streets of Windsor chanting “Hey, hey, ho, ho, Donald Trump has got to go” and “Donald Trump’s not welcome here.”

“I believe it’s wrong for Trump to have a second state visit given his awful rhetoric, policies, and actions toward women and people of color,” Grace Nathew commented.

The protesters, on a street adorned with British and American flags, held signs saying, “Trump your politics stink” and “Go away. You are polluting Windsor.”

Police said they arrested four people Tuesday over a stunt that saw an image of Trump and Jeffrey Epstein projected on a tower at Windsor Castle, a reminder of the president’s relationship with the disgraced financier.

London’s police force deployed 1600 officers as they expected members of about 50 different groups to protest.
