Trump heaps praise on May's handling of Brexit

Anti-Trump activists will kick off a day of protests this morning, by flying the "Trump Baby" blimp outside the Houses of Parliament.

The day's main rally will begin in Trafalgar Square at 11 a.m (6 a.m. ET), with protesters heading towards Downing Street to voice their displeasure at Trump's welcome in the UK, though they will not be allowed to march along Whitehall past the entrance of Downing Street.

Aside from the blimp, the protest will also feature a 16-foot robot version of Trump sitting on the toilet and tweeting, which has already been wheeled into position.

Organizers hope the protests will rival last year's demonstrations, when huge crowds of people took to the streets to protest against the President's working visit.

Trump tweeted on Monday evening: "Tremendous crowds of well wishers and people that love our Country. Haven’t seen any protests yet, but I’m sure the Fake News will be working hard to find them."

After a ceremonial welcome, a state banquet and a spot of tea with the royals on day one, the focus of Donald Trump's state visit to the UK shifts to politics on day two.

The President will join outgoing UK Prime Minister Theresa May for a breakfast meeting alongside the Duke of York and senior UK and US business leaders at St. James's Palace.

Then he'll head to Downing Street for talks with May, followed by a live press conference.

This evening, the Trumps will host a reciprocal dinner for the royals at Winfield House, the US Ambassador's London residence in Regent's Park, where they are staying during their trip.

The couple will be hoping to avoid getting too close to anti-Trump protests, which will be taking place across London throughout the day.

Activists plan to hound the US President, following him as he moves from meeting to meeting. And yes, the Trump Baby blimp will be back...

The rest of tonight's state dinner is closed to press, and the Trumps will retire for the evening once it concludes.

As a result, our live coverage will conclude for the evening.

We'll be back early Tuesday morning ahead of President Trump's meeting with Prime Minister Theresa May and business leaders. Soon after, he'll head to Downing Street for an official bilateral meeting with May and other members of her team, followed by a press conference.

We'll air that live.

Some seating pairings of note:

Here's a list of notable attendees:

President Trump hailed Queen Elizabeth II as a "great, great woman" during a toast from Buckingham Palace on Monday.

Hailing her work as a mechanic during World War II, Trump cast the monarch as a symbol of British strength and endurance.

"From the second world war to today, her majesty has stood as a constant symbol of these priceless traditions," Trump said at the start of a state banquet. "She has embodied the spirit of dignity, duty, and patriotism that beats proudly in every British heart."

Watch the toast:

Her hair is pulled back.

White, it should be noted, seemed to be the theme of the night. Her Majesty the Queen; Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall; and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge are all dressed in white for the state dinner.

Queen Elizabeth welcomed President Trump and the first lady with a speech.

"Visits by American presidents always remind us of the close and long standing friendship between the United Kingdom and the United States," the Queen said, adding she was "glad that we have another opportunity to demonstrate the immense importance that both our countries attach to our relationship."

She spoke of the 75th anniversary of D-Day, noting, "On that day and many occasions since, the armed forces of both our countries fought side by side to defend our cherished values of liberty and democracy."

The Queen added that the anniversary "reminds us of all that our countries have achieved together."

Citing Trump's Scottish ancestry, the Queen reminded the President that he too has a "particular connection to this country."

"Mr. President, as we look to the future, I'm confident that our common values and shared interests will continue to unite us. Tonight, we celebrate an alliance that has helped to ensure the safety and prosperity of both our peoples for decades, and which I believe will endure for many years to come," she said.
