Donald Trump has landed at Stansted Airport for his three-day visit Air Force One has touched down in the UK for the delayed state visit by Donald Trump. The president of the US will spend three days in the UK along with first lady Melania Trump. As he came in to land, the president fired a Twitter broadside at London Mayor Sadiq Khan, writing: ‘@SadiqKhan, who by all accounts has done a terrible job as Mayor of London, has been foolishly ‘nasty’ to the visiting President of the United States, by far the most important ally of the United Kingdom. He is a stone cold loser who should focus on crime in London, not me…… ‘…Kahn reminds me very much of our very dumb and incompetent Mayor of NYC, de Blasio, who has also done a terrible job – only half his height. In any event, I look forward to being a great friend to the United Kingdom, and am looking very much forward to my visit. Landing now.’ Ahead of his visit he has already created a degree of political turbulence, commenting on the Tory leadership race, Brexit and Meghan Markle. He praised Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage, talked up the prospect of a Brexit trade deal, rebuked Sadiq Khan and denied making ‘bad’ comments about the Duchess of Sussex as he set off for Britain. The US president said he expected his three-day state visit to be ‘very important’ and ‘very interesting’ as he left the White House on Sunday evening. Speaking to reporters over the din of his waiting Marine One helicopter, Mr Trump was asked if he planned to meet Mr Johnson during the trip. Marine One was spotted on the tarmac at Stansted ready to whisk Trump to London (Picture: PA) Police officers watch as Air Force One arrives at Stansted Airport (Picture: PA) ‘Well, I think I may meet with him. He’s been a friend of mine. He’s been very nice. I have a very good relationship with him,’ the president said of the Tory leadership hopeful. He went on: ‘I have a very good relationship with Nigel Farage, with many people over there (in the UK) and we’ll see what happens. I may meet with him. They want to meet. We’ll see what happens.’ He called on Britain to leave the European Union without a deal if Brussels refuses to meet its demands and urged the Government to send Mr Farage into the negotiations. The controversy was further exacerbated on Sunday when the US ambassador to the UK, Woody Johnson, suggested the NHS would be on the table in post-Brexit trade talks. Addressing the prospect of a transatlantic trade deal, Mr Trump said: ‘(We’re) going to the UK. I think it’ll be very important. It certainly will be very interesting. There’s a lot going on in the UK. And I’m sure it’s going to work out very well for them. There was a large police presence at Stansted as Trump arrived (Picture: PA) Two US Army helicopters pictured on the tarmac at Stansted Airport (Picture: PA) ‘As you know, they want to do trade with the United States, and I think there’s an opportunity for a very big trade deal at some point in the near future. And we’ll see how that works out.’ Accompanied by first lady Melania Trump, the president departed from Joint Base Andrews near Washington DC aboard Air Force One at around 8.45pm local time (1.45am BST). The Trumps are due to arrive aboard at Stansted Airport on Monday morning before heading to Buckingham Palace for a reception with the Queen, Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall. The Duke of Sussex will also attend a private lunch at the palace – although his wife, who is on maternity leave, will be at home with their four-week-old son, Archie. Mr Trump has already denied calling the Duchess of Sussex ‘nasty’ when he was recently confronted with comments she made before the 2016 US elections saying she would leave the country if he won. Before leaving the US Donald Trump praised Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage (Picture: AP) There is a huge security operation around London for Trump’s state visit (Picture: Getty) Asked at the White House on Sunday evening if he was willing to apologise to the Royal Family, or to clarify the comments made to the Sun’s political editor, Mr Trump replied: ‘No, I made no bad comment. Thank you.’ Mr Trump’s arrival in the capital is due to be followed by a protest through central London against the visit on Tuesday, with the ‘Trump baby’ blimp made for his visit last year due to put in an appearance. On Sunday, Mr Khan described the president as ‘just one of the most egregious examples of a growing global threat’ and compared the language he has used to that of the ‘fascists of the 20th century’. Asked if he would be willing to meet the London mayor, Mr Trump replied: ‘No, I don’t think much of him. I think that he’s a – he’s the twin of (New York City mayor Bill) de Blasio, except shorter.’
