MORE than one million people had signed a petition on Monday demanding that Britain cancel plans for a state visit by US President Donald Trump following his ban on travellers from mainly Muslim countries.
With Prime Minister Theresa May under growing pressure over her ties to Mr Trump, opposition MPs and members of her own Conservative party have also urged ministers to reconsider the visit later this year, which would see Mr Trump honoured by Parliament and Queen Elizabeth II.
