It wasn't all trade talks and tea. The US president was greeted by tens of thousands of protesters in the UK. They marched through the streets demonstrating against Trump's working visit to Britain. Kate Parkinson reports from London.

A giant balloon depicting Donald Trump as an angry baby kicked off a day of nation-wide protest against the US president. It's unlikely Trump will see his inflatable likeness in person though the president appears to be avoiding London during his UK visit. Perhaps to avoid scenes like this. Tens of thousands of people marched through the streets of the capital on Friday, their placards making it clear what they think of Trump.

"I don't like what Donald Trump stands for, plain and simple. I think his government represents at attack on our liberal democracies and the principles that underlie them."

"We've made it pretty obvious that we do not want him and we don't want his kind anywhere near us, thank you."

But Trump hasn't been able to avoid the protesters, completely. Demonstrations have been planned at each stage of his visit. When Marine One touched down at the US ambassador's residence on Thursday evening, protesters were there to greet him. They were waiting for him at Blenheim Palace where he and his wife, Melania, were guests of honor at a gala dinner. And they were outside Windsor Castle when Trump had afternoon tea with the Queen. But by far the biggest protest was in the capital.

KATE PARKINSON LONDON "Before he came to the UK, Trump was asked if he was concerned about protests. He replied, and I quote, 'I think they like me there.' Tens of thousands of people on Friday turned out to tell him otherwise. Kate Parkinson, CGTN, London."
