Trump's visit to Britain faces mass protest marches -- and a giant baby blimp

[kpete]

LONDON — A 20-foot-tall inflatable orange baby with the face of President Donald Trump could float over Britain’s parliament next month, one of many acts of protest planned to coincide with Trump's first visit to the U.K. since taking office.

Tens of thousands of demonstrators are expected to march in London, Scotland and elsewhere during his trip, which takes place amid a growing transatlantic trade war and global dismay at the treatment of immigrant families at the U.S. border.

Britain is keen to reinforce its special relationship with Washington as it prepares to leave the European Union, a divorce that will shape the country’s standing in the world.

But Trump's visit has already been scaled down after months of back-and-forth; the president canceled plans to open the new U.S. Embassy in January and his official state visit — opposed in a petition by at least 1.9 million Brits — appears to be on ice.

6. Oh that was one of my favorite deserts.

It is too good for him. How about loading water pistols, with marmite and smearing him every time he shows face in public.

10. Nooooooooo!!! What a waste of a glorious foodstuff...

...and surely not the right consistency to be shot from a water pistol.

12. Well I imagining it being diluted and shot from a water pistol the size of a water cannon.

Or it could be loaded on a drone and dropped directly on his orange straw hair. A picture of that would be priceless.

11. Very creative! Now that's an idea I would like to see come to fruition!

5. We are ready for him.

I'm sure comedian Janey Godley will be ready for him too when he heads up to Scotland to play golf.

9. The World needs to wake up!

Do not appease Trump, the world needs to start forming alliances against Trump and shun him. He seeks the destruction of the world order so he can replace it with chaos and violence. People were engaging with Hitler like he was a legitimate world leader for far too long too.

Trump is a threat to the world, the sooner the rest of the world wakes up to that and starts responding to that threat the better we'll all be and the less likely global war will be.
