US President in UK: Trump, Epstein images flashed on Windsor castle walls by protesters - Watch

Donald Trump's UK visit is met with controversy as protestors project images linking him to Jeffrey Epstein onto Windsor Castle, leading to arrests.

Protest stunt projects Trump-Epstein images onto Windsor Castle ahead of state visit
Britain rolls out the red carpet for US President Donald Trump, only to troll and mock him. As the Republican leader is all set for his UK visit, protestors on Tuesday projected images of him with his alleged friend and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein onto Windsor Castle in England, where he is expected to stay. Donkey group, which is famous for its viral stunts mocking and targeting politicians, broadcast a video montage on Trump and Epstein for a few minutes on one of the towers of the castle.

Should the media continue to report on Trump's connections to Epstein?
"We take any unauthorised activity around Windsor Castle extremely seriously," said chief superintendant Felicity Parker of Thames Valley Police. He added that officers "responded swiftly to stop the projection".
Trump has long struggled to distance himself from stories about his ties to Epstein, who died in prison in 2019 while awaiting trial for sex trafficking and exploitation charges.The renewed spotlight comes at an awkward moment for both Trump and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who last month dismissed his ambassador to Washington over revelations about the envoy's personal links to Epstein.

Demonstrations swell ahead of talks

Dozens of anti-Trump demonstrators gathered at Windsor Castle to protest against Trump even before he touched down. According to AFP, thousands more are planning to demonstrate in London. Hosted by King Charles III and Queen Camilla, Trump and his wife Melania, will stay at Windsor Castle as their guests. On Thursday, he is scheduled to hold political and economic talks with Prime Minister Starmer at Chequers, the PM's country residence, before returning to the United States.
