US President Donald Trump will arrive in the UK on Tuesday night for a three-day state visit. The US and UK have pledged to strengthen financial ties, including exploring closer connections between the two countries' capital markets. British Prime Minister Starmer hopes to use Trump's visit to showcase the UK as a hot destination for foreign investment. Blackstone Group, the US private equity firm, has pledged to invest £100 billion in UK assets over the next decade. US officials said the visit would result in at least $10 billion in technology investment deals, a nuclear co-operation agreement and discussions on "how to maintain deep links between major financial centres in the future". However, Trump's visit could spell trouble for Starmer. The US president is unpopular in British public opinion, and his itinerary has been carefully designed to avoid any public or political protests.
