Thousands of demonstrators took to the streets of central London to protest U.S. President Donald Trump’s visit to the UK, voicing anger over his policies on climate change, immigration, and foreign relations. The march, which stretched from Trafalgar Square to Westminster, drew a wide spectrum of participants including human rights groups, climate activists, students, and trade union members.
Protesters carried banners reading “No to Trump, No to Hate” and “Climate Justice Now.” Organizers accused Trump of undermining global cooperation at a time when international crises—ranging from climate change to armed conflicts—require joint solutions.
The visit comes at a politically sensitive moment for Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who has sought to balance close ties with Washington against domestic backlash over Trump’s controversial policies. The protest, while largely peaceful, led to heightened security presence across London, with police reporting a handful of scuffles but no major incidents.
The demonstration reflects broader European unease with Trump’s foreign policy agenda, particularly his “America First” trade doctrine and criticism of NATO allies
