political issue of our time, that was published less than an hour before air force one landed at stanstedport in essex, wouldn't create an environment in which the uk and the us could do a trade deals. this incredibly delicate and sensitive domestic political issue was being tackled by an american president who'd already trodden on a few eggshells and then was treading on the remaining ones in the box. extraordinary, and we had to report that in a way that acknowledged just how extraordinary that was. is there always a challenge for reporters in reporting the here and now, and also having a perspective that allows you to step back and see the bigger picture? absolutely, that's a constant challenge for reporters. but the principaljob of a reporter is to report the here and now as accurately and as honestly and as openly, with as much information as we can get hold of in that moment, to our audiences. i think we've done that. donald trump has blown a hole in theresa may's brexit plans... often, and this week has been an exception, often brexit in the micro, the day—to—day developments, fran

ina in a couple of hours' time, you're forced one will touch down at stansted airport. will bring donald trump to this location. this is the official residence of the us ambassador to the uk. donald trump is arriving here on what is undoubtedly the most controversial visit by a us president to these shores. early last year, theresa may extended an invite to donald trump for a state visit. that ended up being debated in parliament. the question was asked whether that invite should be withjohn. it was signed byi.8 invite should be withjohn. it was signed by 1.8 million people who rejected donald trump visiting the uk. donald trump decided not to come. there is the view that since he has visited another several countries, theresa may was the first to visit him, that is visit here is actually long overdue. over the next few days, donald trump will be seeing the protests —— will not be seeing the protests —— will not be seeing the protests —— will not be seeing the protests. many people will be protesting against his presence here. he will be in central london and chequers,

our washington correspondent gary o'donoghue is covering president trump's visit and is at stansted airporty very challenging visit? yes, and a visit made more challenging i think by the comments in brussels before the president left, effectively wading into the whole brexit debate here. before he left the united states he talked about turmoil in the united kingdom, resignations, and now he's effectively aligning himself with the hard brexit camp. that is something theresa may could well have done without at this point in time. she wants to talk to him about trade deals, post brexit trade deals, getting a decent dealfor the uk with the us to try to bolster her position. so she won't take kindly to that. we are told the president will arrive here in short order. you can see behind me the two helicopters that will take him and his closest entourage into central london. there are a spray planes that will take the rest of the contents that will take the rest of the co nte nts of that will take the rest of the contents of air force one into the ambassador‘s residence in regents park for what it

no matter how much capacity is deployed out of heathrow, stansted, the uk airfreight business reliess freight needs to be ta ken across frankfurt and this freight needs to be taken across all specific operators to benefit from that and we will try to, try to limit the damage, but overall i think there is a bad thing for the air freight industry in the uk and for trade in the uk. you mention the word capacity, are there enough freighters or are there too many out there? your aircraft solely carry aircargo, but we there? your aircraft solely carry air cargo, but we have trouble seven passenger plane behind you and a lot of people don't realise today that it is not just of people don't realise today that it is notjust suitcases, but a lot of stuff going under there. is there overcapacity, or not enough?” of stuff going under there. is there overcapacity, or not enough? i think the freight side we have to remember, because of the long crisis, it took about ten years, there has been underinvestment, so for about 8—10 years airlines were hesitant to order freight, but we are changing that

i believe there was a charter flight from stansted to samara, which must be an aviation first.hink there were about 5000—6000 england fans in there. they were small in number but they made a lot of noise. a magnificent atmosphere, they generated. and after such a party, are they still around orare after such a party, are they still around or are they nursing their hangovers in bed this morning? they will not be near where i am, if they have any sense they will be down by the river volga, where there is a promenade and the beach and it looks a bit like the seaside. most importantly, there is a brewery that turns water from the volga by magic into lager and sells it for 75 ru bles into lager and sells it for 75 rubles for 1.5 litres, and sells it for that amount which is about 30p a pint. if they have any sense, they will be there. harry maguire was watching the england iceland game a couple of years ago as a fan himself. there is a real bond among them. gareth southgate has encouraged that. last evening i was in the press box for a good hour after the game had finished, the fa n

ea flew up from stansted airport north of london. he's now making his way to turnberry.olf course that he bought. as he can see air force one has landed and melania trump is accompanying him as they go through this extended visit to europe. just as we have seen in london there are also protest here in scotland. we have already seen some in glasgow not far from where the president's plane landed. we are expecting protests close to turnberry on the west coast, also in aberdeen shirt close to the other golf course that he owns and we got aberdeen shirt. we understand protests are organised in glasgow close to scottish parliament as well. it's been a very busy visit to the uk and while this stop in scotland has no scheduled events, it is likely not to pass without some incident you would imagine. all of this got up this morning to see the interview donald trump gave with the the sun newspaper which was an extraordinary moment and intervention given the week theresa may had with regards to brexit. she laid out a detailed negotiating position to go to the eu with. you will be

touched down at stansted. a still promised state visit, but a much scaled—down working visit. that reflects a country split down the middle over having him here at all. the president and first lady melania were greeted on behalf of the government by liam fox, international trade secretary. that underlines theresa may's key aim, to boost post brexit trade with the us. the president was back in the air again almost immediately on board marine 1 to head for his ambassador‘s official residence in london's regent's park. his only stop in the capital. protesters on the ground seem unlikely even to catch a glimpse of him. earlier today at nato in brussels, the president was wrapping up a summit where he's ripped into allies, particularly germany, accusing them of underfunding europe's defence at america's expense. i'm going to a few hotspots, we have nato and then we have the uk, and then we have putin. and i said, putin may be the easiest of them all. you never know. but i'm going to a pretty hot spot right now with
