Donald Trump has arrived in the UK for a four-day visit, with Air Force One touching down at Prestwick Airport in Ayrshire at around 8:30pm yesterday evening. The US president is expected to meet Sir Keir Starmer and Scotland's First Minister John Swinney ahead of his official state visit to the UK in September - during which he is set to meet King Charles.
Trump will also spend time at his Scottish golf courses during the trip, as security teams enforce a tight ring of steel around his movements. Around 5,000 personnel from the police and security services have been deployed, and snipers have already been spotted in position across parts of Scotland.
Earlier this morning, Mr Trump posted on his social media platform Truth Social: "I'm in Scotland now. Many meetings planned!!!"
