Warren Kenny, GMB Regional Secretary said:

“GMB are aware of the odious, vile racist behaviour and comments and tweets of Donald Trump and believe the invitation to him for a state visit was a major error and an insult to the vast majority of the UK’s population.

“The President is a divisive figure who, amongst other misdemeanours, has supported racist groups, marginalised non-white citizens, threatened other states, and is fuelling an arms race.

“We want to express our total opposition to such a visit and are encouraging branches and members to actively oppose this visit by attending this march.”
