Large crowds of demonstrators gather in central London to protest Trump’s state visit

Transcript

00:00The fact that the Prime Minister has given a platform to someone such as Trump

00:03who has been accused of rape many times and also is is almost undeniably on the

00:10FCN flight logs it's just it makes our country look like a joke.

00:13We're here today to protest against Donald Trump. Donald Trump who stands for new fascism.

00:22He's a man full of hate. He's a man full of violence. We in the UK are saying no Donald Trump,

00:29no. So I've travelled from Newcastle because I think it's really important to protest

00:36the fact that Trump's been given a state visit. He's eroding women's rights,

00:40hemp and dresses handmaid's tail. Obviously he's eroding lots of other people's rights so those

00:46ICE raids on immigrants are disgusting. He's eroding trans rights, gays rights, let alone the war in

00:55the Middle East. It's just there's a list of too many things to criticise him for.

00:59I'm here because Donald Trump is a climate change denier and we've got two major wars going on at

01:03the moment which is Palatine, Gaza, Israel and Ukraine, Russia. He said on day one of being

01:10president he would stop both the wars. Well it's just words. Where's the action?

01:16My father escaped from Poland just before the Holocaust began but most of his family did not.

01:23I see that what is happening now in Gaza, in Israel, in Palestine is in many ways a terrible,

01:30terrible echo of what happened in those days. Everyone knows that there's only one person

01:35now who really has the power in their hands, their own individual hands,

01:40to make this all stop and that is President Trump.
