    The whistling and whooping ramped up as Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn took to the stage in Whitehall.

    The streets are now packed with cagoule-clad protesters holding aloft umbrellas and placards saying, "Dump Trump".

    Some have their faces covered with #trumpstinks masks, others wear badges saying "another nasty woman against Trump".

    There are mums with small children in buggies who have given up a day in the park to make their young voices heard, alongside seasoned protesters and American expats.

    A little further up the street, mounted police officers are dealing with a disturbance from far-right protesters.

    The rain's holding off for the moment but Mr Corbyn has a message for the visiting president.

    "Think on please about a world that is aiming for peace and disarmament, that defeats racism and misogyny."

    The crowd roars cheers of support.

    Melissa Branzburg, originally from Miami but now living in Greenwich, says President Trump has been talked about at her home for a long time.

    Her children - Isaac, five, and Ruth, three, who would usually be doing crafts or at the park - are keen to let Mr Trump know they don't want him here in London, she says.

    She says they ask a lot about children in cages in the US - and she tries to use age-appropriate language to explain.

    "I want them to know they can make their voices heard and can see other people agree with them," she adds.
