Protest organisers expect significant resistance to Donald Trump in Scotland, with events scheduled from Ayrshire to Aberdeenshire. The president is set to visit his golf resorts for five days, with Keir Starmer slated to meet him. While no formal press briefings are planned, media presence is anticipated. Police Scotland stated the protests are expected to remain orderly, although the Police Federation highlighted concerns over resource strain. Protests will occur in Aberdeen and Edinburgh, alongside gatherings at Trump's golf course locations, related to his mother's heritage.
Protest organisers anticipate a wave of resistance to Donald Trump from Ayrshire to Aberdeenshire as Scots take to the streets to express widespread anger at the president's increasingly extreme policies.
Protests are expected around Turnberry and Menie, where Trump is expected to open a new 18-hole golf course named in honour of his mother.
Events are being organized in Aberdeen and outside the US embassy in Edinburgh, with similar gatherings during Trump's 2018 visit to Scotland attracting thousands.
The Scottish Police Federation indicated that the scale of the policing operation would stretch resources and potentially double the response time to incidents.
