Trump won't go to the UK until Parliament is out of session, to avoid being denied admission to the Commons

The tone of the original Guardian article was more like “the UK won’t invite Trump until parliament is in recess”, for what it’s worth.

Also from the article:

Officials are also said to be keen to limit the president’s public exposure more generally during the visit, in order to reduce the opportunities for protests

Though if there is a ‘stadium fundraiser’, I’d like to think that a counter fund-raiser would raise rather more money for the Poppy appeal.
