Trump flies into ANOTHER huge protest as he lands in Scotland [View all]

Thousands of people have gathered in Glasgow's George Square to protest against Donald Trump's visit as he prepares to fly to Scotland.

The president has been welcomed by Scottish Secretary David Mundell, but opposition to the Republican's trip remains vocal across the country.

Among the placards carried by campaigners were messages against the US president's policies including a reference to the detainment of illegal immigrants' children that read: 'Give the weans Irn Bru not iron cages'.

Others urged Trump to go home, with one sign referencing his campaign slogan that read: 'Bolt ya rocket and make Scotland great again'.
