Trump will not address UK parliament during state visit

Donald Trump has reportedly been denied the chance to address parliament during his state visit to the UK.

Trump will not address UK parliament during state visit

The decision, which is likely to be seen as a major snub by the US president, comes just days after Emmanuel Macron was given the honour of addressing parliament, where he urged Britain and France “to shoulder the burden of European security” together.

According to the Telegraph, Mr Trump is expected not to visit Buckingham Palace or enjoy a ceremonial carriage ride down the Mall in London, which have often been prominent features of state visits from other world leaders.

The decision came amid concerns there could be objections from both the public and MPs following calls for Mr Trump to be blocked from addressing parliament earlier this year, with MPs and peers warning the US president “does not respect democracy”.
