Anti-Trump protestors are on standby after news has emerged that Donald Trump may be making a snap visit to the UK this month.

According to reports, senior government officials are expecting the President of the United States to make an unscheduled trip to his Aberdeenshire golf course while visiting Europe, where he has arranged to visit France for its Bastille Day celebrations on July 14th.
A formal state visit, which was meant to happen over the summer, was postponed due to fears that it would be disrupted by mass protests. However, now the government has allegedly been warned that the Trump trip to Britain could still be on around the mentioned date. Obviously he would be expected to meet with Theresa May at Downing Street for informal talks if the trip does happen, but final confirmation is probably only going to be given with just 24 hours’ notice to avoid conflicts.

It looks like this is going to be pretty much impossible, as protestors are already geared up for last minute demonstrations. After the latest rumours, the Stop Trump campaigner and Guardian columnist Owen Jones sent a post out on Twitter to warn people and tell them to be on standby:
Theresa May's on standby for Trump to visit Downing Street this month.
We're on standby to rise up. Bring it on ✊https://t.co/Fv4yO5ACOg

Donald Trump is planning to sneak into Britain to avoid protests. RT if you're willing to commit to protesting this bigot at short notice ✊

Trump might’ve thought he was swerving the drama, but it looks the UK is ready for him. You’d better watch out Trump – this trip to Blighty could get ugly.
