Trump's official state visit to the UK included a royal banquet and an awkward handshake that broke royal protocol

Prince Charles has arrived for dinner with Donald Trump on the final night of the President’s state visit to Britain.

The Prince of Wales is representing the Queen at the event hosted by the US ambassador.

He was accompanied by wife Camilla for dinner at Winfield House in London’s exclusive Regent’s Park, reports The Sun.

The house is the official residence of ambassador Woody Johnson and has been owned by the US since 1955.

The royal couple posed for pictures with the Trumps outside the house after arriving from their own home, Clarence House.

Tonight’s dinner is a formal “reply” to last night’s state banquet, allowing Mr Trump to repay Her Majesty’s hospitality.

Mr Trump was placed between Theresa May and Prince Charles, with Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt on the British PM’s other side.

Mrs Trump was between the Duchess of Cornwall and Philip May.

The US President’s children also turned out for the dinner with Ivanka donning a glamorous white dress and her brothers kitted out in black tie.

They dined on a tomato salad followed by grilled fillet of beef and summer berries with homemade vanilla ice cream.

Ahead of the dinner Mr Johnson said: “Tonight, my wife and I will be honoured to welcome special guests to Winfield House — America’s home in Britain.

“A beautiful venue to celebrate a beautiful friendship.”

TRUMP’S ‘AWKWARD’ GREETING TO PM

Earlier, Mr Trump spent most of the day in talks with Theresa May, starting with a breakfast briefing including top business leaders.

The two leaders then met again at 10 Downing Street and shared lunch at the PM’s home.

Finally they held a joint press conference where the President vowed to strike a “phenomenal” trade deal with Britain after Brexit.

The two avoided an awkward handshake as the US President arrived at Downing Street — by ditching the greeting altogether.

Mr and Mrs Trump arrived at Downing Street to be met by the outgoing British Prime Minister and her husband Philip May. But as Mr May shook hands with Mr and Mrs Trump, Mrs May only managed to get an official greeting in with Melania before directing everyone to the front door.

Before his motorcade arrived at Downing Street, he passed parliament Square, where a giant baby Trump blimp is flying high. The entire stretch of road towards Downing Street has been completely blocked off by police officers, as protesters march through the streets.

US committed to 'phenomenal' trade deal with UK: Trump United States President Donald Trump says his nation is committed to a 'phenomenal' trade deal with the United Kingdom post-Brexit. During the President's state visit to the UK, he spoke with British Prime Minister Theresa May in London on Tuesday.

During the meeting Mr Trump and Mrs May discussed trade, Brexit and the “special relationship” between the US and the UK.

Mr Trump predicted the eventual passage of a Brexit deal, saying that he “would say that it will happen and that it should happen.”

Mr Trump said he believed it “will be good for the country.”

Mrs May will step down as Conservative leader on Friday after failing to secure a deal on the UK’s exit from the European Union. Britain’s parliament voted not to leave the EU without a deal but three times rejected Mrs May’s attempts.

Still, Mrs May said it is in the UK’s best interest to deliver. Mr Trump previously criticised May over her handling of the issue but said Tuesday she deserves “a lot of credit.” He said he thinks Mrs May has “done a very good job.”

TRUMP COMMITTED TO ‘PHENOMENAL’ TRADE DEAL

Mr Trump also said the United States is committed to a “phenomenal” trade deal with Britain as it prepares to leave the European Union.

Mrs May has been dogged by her failure to achieve Brexit and is stepping down this week as head of her Conservative Party but will remain as prime minister until her successor is chosen.

It will be the new prime minister’s responsibility to achieve Brexit and any bilateral trade deal with the US

Mr Trump restated his desire for a UK trade deal, saying there is “tremendous potential.”

The US President said the two countries could do two to three times that amount of trade they’re currently conducting.

TRUMP LAUDS JOHNSON, HUNT

Mr Trump also reiterated his opinion that Boris Johnson would make a good UK prime minister and has praised another contender for the job, Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt.

Mr Johnson and Mr Hunt are among a dozen Conservative politicians running to succeed Mrs May, who is due to step down as party leader on Friday after failing to deliver Brexit. The winner of the party leadership contest will become Britain’s next prime minister.

Mr Hunt greeted Mr Trump when he landed at Stansted Airport on Monday, and British media reported that Mr Johnson and the president spoke by phone on Tuesday. Mr Trump has asked to meet Environment Secretary Michael Gove.

Mr Trump said he knows and likes Mr Johnson and thinks “he’d do very good job.”

He said he knows Mr Hunt and thinks “he’d do a very good job,” too, but that he didn’t “know Michael”.

Mr Gove has met Mr Trump, interviewing him for the Times in 2017.

PROTESTS GREET TRUMP

It comes as thousands of people have protested in central London against Mr Trump’s visit to Britain, but numbers were well down on the tens of thousands who gathered to oppose his visit last year.

Protesters shouted, banged drums and waved placards at what organisers called a “Carnival of Resistance” in Trafalgar Square as Prime Minister Theresa May held talks with Mr Trump a short distance away at her Downing Street residence.

The leader of Britain’s opposition Labour Party, Jeremy Corbyn, addressed the rally, calling it “the living embodiment of what a democratic society was all about”.

Among Britons, Mr Trump is one of the least-liked foreign leaders, with just 21 per cent of people surveyed by YouGov having a positive opinion of him. Among women, that figure fell to 14 per cent.

The protest’s tone was set by a large statue of Mr Trump sitting on a golden lavatory with his trousers around his ankles. People held placards that read “Keep your tiny hands off our Queen”, “Lock him in the tower” and “Free Melania!” Linda Coplestone, 64, a retired teacher from London, said she was protesting inaction by Mr Trump on climate change.

“We have ruined the planet,” she said. “He has a powerful voice and could do something about it. He chooses not to.”

Often with creativity and humour, the protesters rallied around issues ranging from restrictions on women’s reproductive rights to fears that US businesses would carve up Britain’s ailing but cherished health service. The crowd, several thousand strong, was far smaller than the one that protested Trump’s first visit to Britain as president in July 2018, but featured the same British humour.

One woman carried a sign carrying the Shakespearean insult, “I bite my thumb at thee!” Elsewhere, a man sold toilet rolls featuring Mr Trump’s face.

There were pockets of support. A few men wearing red caps with “Make America Great Again” walked among the crowd. Trump supporters said the protests were an insult to the leader of the United Kingdom’s most powerful ally. A giant inflatable blimp depicting Trump as a sneering baby in a nappy flew outside the British parliament, remaining airborne as the president held talks with Mrs May.
