US President Donald Trump is to visit the UK on Friday 13 July, after previously cancelling a trip amid claims he would face mass protests.

It will not be the full-blown state visit Mr Trump was promised when Prime Minister Theresa May visited the White House in January last year.

But an invitation to a state visit still stands, the BBC understands.

He will hold talks with Mrs May, Downing Street said, with further details to be "set out in due course".

1. He would face mass protests whenever he comes!

2. I bet he'll fly in, late at night, to his Aberdeen money pit.

Stick around for a photo op with bleary-eyed members of the Maydup government, and then zip right back out.

He'll refer to it as his "wonderful visit to the UK," of course.

3. We'll see (n/t)

5. Maybe the U.K.'s air traffic controllers will put Air Force One in a holding pattern

for several hours to protest the Orange One's arrival. Let's get the resistance started early!

6. Hey, world! Here's America's arsehole!

Oy...

7. And the winner of the bill....

hard working tax payers, a lot missing enough gray matter to get their iq above room temp.

8. Still some time away. Might still cancel it

9. The Queen's golden carriage is in the shop

Sorry - no rides for you Cheeto!

15. Don't Worry, Cheeto, They Have A More Suitable Carriage For You....

16. Gotta add a leaf or two to the rear springs.

And add a couple of horses to the team.

And freshen the gold leaf. That's just not elaborate enough for the best president since Lincoln. And, many of you may not know this, but Lincoln was a Republican. I learned that from listening to Trump.

17. Devolution of the GOP

10. I'm guessing he'll be greeted like Key West greeted him recently...

11. Oh, please, God, don't make Her Majesty have to meet that walking orange pustule

She does NOT deserve that kind of affront at her time of life.

18. It's not a state visit so she's under no obligation

My guess is he won't get anywhere near the Royal Family, though I wouldn't mind seeing Philip mock him to his face as he has done to leaders of other countries in the past.

12. No golden carriage or golden showers?

13. Saw on news, BBC reporter's snark on announcing that Trump's visit is on Friday the 13th:

"What could possibly go wrong?"

[Bengus81]

14. Like my daughter who lives there said--at least NOW we have a firm date for the protests.....

And protest they will--maybe half million to a million. Have fun Donnie..........

19. Hope they'll show their rump to Trump
