What Trump told Theresa May about his visit to UK

The United States President, Donald Trump has reportedly told the British Prime Minister, Theresa May, he will only come to Britain when he is sure she has fixed his bad media image.

Trump also told Theresa May he had not had “great coverage” in the UK and that he would visit when he knows he would “get a better reception.”

The Sun Newspaper (UK) reported it had got hold of a transcript of a telephone conversation between the two world leaders.

Trump reportedly said: “I haven’t had great coverage out there lately, Theresa.”

May replied: “Well, you know what the British press are like.”

Trump said: “I still want to come, but I’m in no rush. So, if you can fix it for me, it would make things a lot easier.

“When I know I’m going to get a better reception, I’ll come and not before.”

Prime Minister Theresa May had previously invited President Trump to visit Britain in January, sparking a backlash which saw nearly two million people sign an online petition against the state welcome.

The following month, thousands of protesters marched to Westminster against the invitation.

But Downing Street has since confirmed that officials are looking at Donald Trump’s state visit to Britain for 2018.

However no date has yet been set for the visit – which had originally been expected to take place this year.

President Trump confirmed that he still intended to come to London when he met Mrs. May last week at the G20 summit in Hamburg
