Baby Trump was also staged by gloBULL warming zealots -

13 Jul: Climate Home: ‘Trump’s climate denial threatens all of us’: protestors hit London’s streets
A massive baby Trump balloon, organised by climate activists, was part of rolling protests that greeted the president in the UK on Friday
By Soila Apparicio
An infantile president deserves an infantile protest, according to those flying a Donald Trump baby balloon around London’s Parliament Square on Friday...

“[Climate change] is the single greatest threat to anything anyone holds dear,” said Max Wakefield, one of the self-appointed ‘Trump babysitters’. “We have enough on our plate dealing with the racism, sexism, so we could do without piling ecological collapse on that.”...
“Trump is wilfully wrecking the climate. We are all at threat from what Trump is doing,” added Wakefield...

btw BBC gave widely-diverging police and organiser’s figures for the Scottish protest - check the pic - looks like about 4,000.

but BBC only used organiser figures for the London march, in all their reports I’ve seen, yet it looked like 20-30,000 max in the pics online:

14 Jul: BBC: Thousands joined Trump protest as US leader played golf
PHOTO: The police estimated that 9,000 people joined the Edinburgh demonstration. Organisers said they believed some 60,000 had taken to the streets...

Tens of thousands of people - organisers claim up to 250,000 - protested in London on Friday against Mr Trump’s UK visit...

However, the UK government’s International Trade Secretary Liam Fox told the BBC that the anti-Trump campaigners were “an embarrassment to themselves”...

The paraglider stunt, which happened shortly after Mr Trump and his entourage arrived at Turnberry, was reportedly staged by Greenpeace.
Ben Stewart, a spokesman for the organisation, told the BBC: “It wasn’t dangerous at all. We let the police know about 10 or 15 minutes before that we were coming in.
“We phoned them, we had someone on the police line who informed them. We thought it was important that the president actually saw a real-life protester...

Police insisted they wanted to strike a balance between “protection and public safety and the public’s right to peacefully protest”.
However, Assistant Chief Constable Mark Williams said officers were committed to tracing the person who flew the aircraft.
He added: “There are armed assets protecting the president - both from the US Secret Service and ourselves and the Met Police, who offer a close protection function as well.
“And there’s no doubt anybody who breaches security around him puts themselves in grave danger.
“On this occasion we could assess the situation and we realised there was no direct threat to the president however it’s absolutely something that is very serious.”...

The baby Trump balloon that featured in protests in London on Friday was a feature of the Edinburgh protest.

just like CNN and other FakeNewsMSM, Baby Trump got as much or more attention from BBC as the President himself! that tells us a lot.
