Trump and Melania touches down in Regent's Park after taking Marine One from Stansted on his first presidential visit to UK


The US President landed at Stansted Airport on Air Force One (inset) with First Lady Melania (pictured together) and will meet the Prime Minister and Queen during a four-day red carpet visit. America's Commander-in-Chief has 1,000 of his own staff in the UK and a giant motorcade led by his bomb-proof Cadillac nicknamed 'The Beast' as well as multiple helicopters including Marine One to fly him around. Earlier today he gave an extraordinary press conference in Brussels after giving NATO leaders a bruising over funding, where he wrote off protesters and said Theresa May's Brexit deal probably wasn't what Britons voted for. When asked about the threat of mass demonstrations he said: 'I think it's fine. A lot of people like me there. I think they agree with me on immigration. I think that's why Brexit happened'. Despite not being an official state visit the Government is desperate to ensure the US leader feels he is being treated with the appropriate level of pomp and ceremony.
