Anti-Trump Protesters Will Draw Rude Message On Beach To 'Welcome' Him To Scotland

Donald Trump waves to protesters while playing golf at Turnberry golf club in 2018.Anti-Donald Trump protesters will draw a rude message on the beach to welcome his to Scotland this week.The US president will open a new golf course named after his Scottish mother outside Aberdeen as part of a “private” trip to the UK.Trump is also due to visit his golf course in Turnberry during the four-day visit, which begins on Friday.Although it is not an official presidential visit, he is still due to hold face-to-face talks with prime minister Keir Starmer during his stay.In advance of the visit, protesters have formed the “Stop Trump Coalition” to make it clear to the president that he is not welcome in the UK.One of them, Tommy Campbell from Aberdeen, told the Sunday Times: “We want to make sure that there’s no red carpet laid out for him when he comes to Scotland.“I can’t take away the fact that his mother is Scottish. But he’s certainly not Scottish.”The tight security which surrounds Trump will ensure the demonstrators will not be able to get close to him, so they plan to inscribe a huge message on the Aberdeenshire coastline that they hope he will be able to see as he flies in.Campbell, a 67-year-old trade unionist, said: “We anticipate he will be flying in, possibly on a helicopter. We’ll make sure from the air that he will see our presence.“It will be a peaceful protest to make it clear to Donald Trump that he’s not welcome. We will be acting in solidarity with the good citizens of the United States who are now suffering under his dictatorship.”People hold posters when watching the motorcade vehicles transporting Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump on the road leaving Trump Turnberry in 2018. Protesters turned out in force to protest against Trump during a previous visit to Turnberry when he was first president in 2018.He will return to the UK in September for a second state visit, the first time any US president will have received such an honour.Related...The White House Says Trump Has Been Diagnosed With Chronic Venous Insufficiency.
