Protests are planned for London and other UK cities this weekend

Why are Brits protesting?

Thousands of men and women will take to the streets of London, Washington and many other major cities around the world today on the first full day of Mr Trump’s presidency.

In Washington, more than 200,000 men and women are expected to attend a march that will feature musical performances from Beyoncé, Janelle Monáe and more.

Another 14,000 people will attend a march in London with QI host Sandi Toksvig, Labour MP Yvette Cooper and the Green Party’s Caroline Russell scheduled to speak.

Organisers have said: “The US election proved a catalyst for a grassroots movement of women to assert the positive values that the politics of fear denies.

Millions will join marches and protests worldwide

“We will march for the protection of our fundamental rights and for the safeguarding of freedoms threatened by recent political events.

“We unite and stand together for the dignity and equality of all peoples, for the safety and health of our planet and for the strength of our vibrant and diverse communities.”

Emma McNally, protest organiser, added: “Mr Trump has been normalising unacceptable behaviour and has been contributing to social unrest, social anxiety and social fear and we want to make a stand against that.”

When and what time is the march?

The Women’s March on London will begin outside the US Embassy in Grosvenor Square, Mayfair at 12pm and end in Waterloo Place.

The two-mile march is expected to last for several hours and could be marred by rain, so be sure to take appropriate clothing, food and water if you are joining in.

Signs are welcome but organisers would like to remind those attending that the event is a peaceful protest.

While the march is designed to highlight women's rights, men are welcome to join.
