Donald Trump UK visit: Fears 'world is ending' as helicopter escort shakes homes

Londoners moaned on social media that Donald Trump's huge helicopter entourage sent houses shaking and played havoc with TV signals.

The US President, 72, made the journey from Stansted Airport to central London in a White Hawk, a Marine One helicopter, after arriving on British soil.

His large helicopter entourage, which features decoy Marine One choppers, caused havoc with residents in and around north London.

Many complained online of the huge noise as they flew within metres over homes.

"Donald Trump’s helicopter, Marine One, just knocked out our television signal," tweeted one person.

Another furious Twitter user added: "Donald trump just woke me UP flying over in his helicopter legit 20 metres away from our roof.

"THANK U FOR CAUSING ME IMMEDIATE ANXIETY FIRST THING IN THE MORNING I THOUGHT THE WORLD WAS ENDING."

And a third posted: "Room starts vibrating, look out the window and see a crazy looking green helicopter flying over my street.

"I did some googling and I'm 99% certain that Donald Trump just flew over my flat. If that isn't an omen for Monday I don't know what is. Ew."

Some shared photos and videos of the helicopters hovering low in the London skies.

Others took a more light-hearted view on the scenes.

Some on the social media platform said they couldn't sleep as a result of the din.

Others joked the politician should have taken an Uber.

Mr Trump is on British soil for the most expensive state visit in British history and likely the most controversial.

He has already insulted London Mayor Sadiq Khan on Twitter,  calling him a "stone cold loser".

After some "down time" at the US ambassador's residence, the Trumps will head to Buckingham Palace for a ceremonial welcome and a private lunch hosted by the Queen, along with Prince Charles and Prince Harry .

Protesters have gathered in London and the Trump baby blimp will fly over the capital.

Trump will also tour Westminster Abbey, lay a wreath at the Grave of the Unknown Warrior and enjoy tea with Prince Charles at Clarence House today.

Later, a state banquet will take place at Buckingham Palace, bringing Trump's first day in the UK to a close.

Trump's visit will be by far the most expensive in British history –  costing taxpayers an estimated £40million  in security costs.
