Trump ‘angry baby’ balloon cleared to fly

A giant balloon depicting Donald Trump as an angry, orange baby will fly near Parliament during the US president’s controversial visit to the UK next week.

Permission for the 20ft inflatable, dubbed “Trump Baby”, to rise above Parliament Square Gardens for two hours on Friday 13 July has been granted to protesters by the Greater London Authority.

Mr Trump is expected to arrive in the city the evening before the planned stunt and is likely to visit Blenheim Palace, meet the Queen at Windsor, hold talks with Prime Minister Theresa May at Chequers, and travel to his golf courses in Scotland during the trip.
