Hundreds of people are expected to take to the streets of Bristol again to protest Donald Trump’s arrival in Britain in just over a week.
The US President is due to arrive in the UK on Monday, June 3 for his state visit and is expected to be accompanied by his wife Melanie and his four grown-up children and their partners.
Protests are expected to eclipse most of his visit to the country, similar to when he was last here in July 2018.
In London anti-Trump campaigners are again planning on flying a controversial balloon - which shows Donald Trump as a baby holding a mobile phone - in the skies over the capital.
And here in Bristol a similar protest to the one which brought traffic in the city to a standstill last year is due to take place on Monday, June 3.
Anyone wishing to take place has been asked to gather at 5pm at the fountains in The Centre, near the Hippodrome.
The campaigners could once again march up Park Street and around the Clifton Triangle, which could cause delays for motorists and bus passengers during the Monday evening rush hour.
A host of organisations and protest groups in Bristol are coming together for the demo against President Trump, which is being co-ordinated with similar demonstrations in most major UK cities.
Bristol Together Against Trump, which has organised the protest, wrote on Facebook: “We will be taking to the streets opposing Trump's racism, themed areas will feature throughout the protest with climate justice, migrants’ rights, anti-racism, Women's rights, LGBT rights, anti-war and trade union rights and many more.
“Theresa May is backing Trump’s toxic politics. It is wrong to give him a state visit. This is a chance to take a stand against right wing ideas on both sides of the Atlantic.”
During the three-day visit to the UK Mr Trump will meet Theresa May, who will still be in office after announcing her resignation on Friday (May 24) morning.
The president is also expected to attend a ceremony at Portsmouth to commemorate the 75th anniversary of D-day before heading to Normandy, France, on June 6 for more commemorations.
