The baby blimp and more of the most creative Donald Trump protesters in London
From the flying baby blimp to a carefully painted piece of artwork from Kaya Mar.
Thousands took to the streets of London to protest over Donald Trump’s arrival in the UK, on day two of the US president’s state visit.
As well as Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn and spokespeople from the Liberal Democrats and Green Party, the event marching from Parliament Square to Whitehall was also attended by a host of creative minds – as the examples that follow illustrate.
Baby blimp
A team of organisers wearing red jumpsuits and hats marked “Trump Babysitters” launched the balloon to cheers from dozens of onlookers at Parliament Square, where nearby roads are sealed off and police are standing guard in anticipation of large protests.
Trump loo roll
The novelty loo roll was sold from trolleys along the protesters’ route.
Trump on the toilet
The robot says the phrases “No collusion”, “You are fake news” and “I’m a very stable genius” – the audio of which is Mr Trump’s own voice.
Kaya Mar’s latest artwork
The painting depicts the president as a constricting snake wrapped around a pen which reads “press freedom”.
A sign on the cage says “do not feed the gorilla, he only eats chlorinated chicken”, in apparent protest at US government hopes to see UK food standard laws changed in a future trade deal.
