Damage control for Trump's trip

President Donald Trump and the First Lady are to be hosted at Windsor Castle by the King and Queen for an unprecedented second state visit from September 17-19. The House of Commons will not be sitting as it will be in recess for party conference season, meaning the President will not be able to address Parliament. You say...

■DONALD Trump should not have been allowed to come to the UK. It seems utter madness that we would welcome that man here - especially as this would be for the second time.

We should be making a stand against him, not inviting him for tea at Windsor Castle. He's vulgar, lacks charm and credibility and is not to be trusted.

The fact his visit coincides with MPs and their party conferences is a huge snub to the president.

When Ronald Reagan, Barack Obama and Bill Clinton visited the UK during their state visits, they all addressed parliament.

I don't think Trump will have taken that well, especially as he was denied the chance on his first visit.

I really hope he won't be making an appearance at a conference.

He really should not be given a platform here at all.
