Donald Trump is set to make an unprecedented second state visit to the UK from September 17-19, 2023, hosted by King Charles at Windsor Castle. This visit, scheduled during a time when parliament is not in session, eliminates the possibility of Trump addressing parliament, a privilege extended to other presidents. The visit has sparked controversy, with multiple Labour MPs urging Speakers of both houses to block a potential Trump speech due to his past remarks and policies. The US ambassador expressed that Trump would receive a warm reception in Britain.
King Charles has invited Donald Trump for a second state visit from 17-19 September, avoiding a parliamentary address during the trip.
Trump is the first elected politician in modern history to receive two state visits, following his previous visit in 2019.
Fifteen Labour MPs and five others have signed a motion urging the House of Commons speakers to prevent Trump from delivering a speech.
The US ambassador believes Trump should be welcomed warmly, stating he loves Britain and admires it immensely.
