First president to get a second invitation

Trump set for UK state visit

Donald Trump landed in Britain yesterday evening for a historic second state visit that will see the UK government spare no effort in trying to flatter the mercurial American president.

As wars still rage in Ukraine and the Middle East, and major economies grapple with US tariffs, Britain hopes the pageantry of its monarchy can help keep Mr Trump on side.

But controversies over sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and free-speech culture wars could make for some awkward moments when Mr Trump sits down with Britain's embattled Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

Mr Trump has long been fascinated with the royal family and will be treated to a carriage procession with King Charles III and a grand state banquet at Windsor Castle.
