President Trump will be in Britain on Monday for a state visit. Staying through to Wednesday, Trump will meet Queen Elizabeth II and attend D-Day commemorations as well as a state banquet at Buckingham Palace. But the trip is also likely to see its fair share of low-level disruption.
While President Trump will be well-protected by the Secret Service and British security services, expansive protests are planned. These include events outside Buckingham Palace during the Monday evening banquet, outside Downing Street during Trump’s meeting with Theresa May on Tuesday, and in the coastal town of Portsmouth during memorials for the D-Day landings on Wednesday. While the protests planned appear to be harmless, security concerns will abide.
