Speaking about potential safety issues, expert Christopher Bucktin tells Mirror: “Let us be absolutely clear about what is happening here. As King Charles and the Queen fly to the US, British and American security teams are not simply polishing schedules and motorcades, they are asking a far more basic question: is this safe enough to go ahead?”

He adds: “The honest answer, when stripped of diplomatic niceties, is no. Not physically. Not politically. Not in any way that should give comfort to a country sending its Head of State into the orbit of Donald Trump.”

Says the expert: “Because, following the White House Correspondents Dinner on Saturday, during which an armed man tried to take out Trump, this is not just about one man being a target. It is about proximity to him, turning everyone nearby into one.”
