DONALD TRUMP is now confirmed as coming to Britain in July on what has been termed a “working visit,” where he is likely to meet Theresa May prior to a Nato summit in Brussels.  

Assuming it goes ahead, he is sure to face a massive national demonstration against his politics of racism, climate change denial, misogyny, warmongering and hate.

The organisers of the Together Against Trump demonstration (provisionally on July 13), which brings together existing campaigns such as Stop Trump and Stand Up to Trump, say that their protest could be massive.
