London, UK. 9th July 2018. A woman holds up a 'No To Trump' poster in front of a hostile right-wing cameramanwho had tried to interrupt the first protest in the week of action against President Trump's visit outside the US Embassy in Nine Elms hosted by Momentum Wandsworth. Speakers reminded us that in addition to all his other faults, Trump has described Wandsworth where the new embassy is as 'lousy' and 'horrible'. Wandsworth has a long and proud radical tradition, and the embassy site was the home of one of the leading suffragettes, Charlotte Despard. Two Labour councillors were among the speakers but local Labour MP Marsha De Cordova who had hoped to be there was unable to leave Parliament because of the feverish atmosphere there over ministerial resignations. One man filming the event for a right-wing organisation attempted to interrupt the proceedings but was challenged by protesters. He was left to continue filming but prevented from further interruptions. Trump is not expected to visit the embassy and will only be in London for an overnight stay at the Ambassador's residence in Regents Park, his schedule planned to avoid protests so far as is possible.
