MPs will debate the petition in Westminster Hall, the petition doesn’t want to see a state visit by Trump and says it will cause “embarrassment” to the Queen.

Another petition which is pro-visit has been signed by nearly 312,000 people, this will also be considered.

In an official repsonse the Government said ministers believe “the president of the United States should be extended the full courtesy of a state visit”.
