London will see two Trumps: the president and a balloon parody



Londoners will get to see two versions of Donald Trump next week: the 45th president of the United States and a 20-foot-high inflatable version that is orange and wearing a nappy.

Mr Trump will be in the city for a meeting with Queen Elizabeth and Prime Minister Theresa May and protesters are planning a “stop Trump” march through central London. Flying above them will be the rotund baby-faced spoof with small hands and what organisers describe as a “malevolent face”.

The protesters’ request to fly the balloon on July 13 originally was rejected by the mayor’s office, which said it did not qualify as a protest. But London mayor Sadiq Khan later approved it after thousands signed a petition.

The mayor's office said that it "supports the right to peaceful protest and understands that this can take many different forms."

Leo Murray, one of the protest organisers, told Sky News: “Following a huge groundswell of public support for our plan, it looks like City Hall has rediscovered its sense of humour. Trump Baby will fly!”

After the London protest, organisers say they plan to send the balloon on a “world tour”. In a crowdfunding request, they wrote that they want the balloon to shadow the president, “haunting the skies – and hopefully the dreams – of the stain on the office of President that is Donald Trump Senior.”

The White House has brushed aside questions about protests during Mr Trump’s trip.

“Look, we see protesters every day standing out front of the White House,” deputy press secretary Hogan Gidley told reporters earlier this week. “What the president is going to do is go into these meetings with the mindset to protect the American people, to stand with our partners and allies.”

The London protesters still need approval from the Metropolitan Police and National Air Traffic Service for it to fly and “ensure all protests are carried out safely and securely.”

10 tips for entry-level job seekers
  • Have an up-to-date, professional LinkedIn profile. If you don’t have a LinkedIn account, set one up today. Avoid poor-quality profile pictures with distracting backgrounds. Include a professional summary and begin to grow your network.
  • Keep track of the job trends in your sector through the news. Apply for job alerts at your dream organisations and the types of jobs you want – LinkedIn uses AI to share similar relevant jobs based on your selections.
  • Double check that you’ve highlighted relevant skills on your resume and LinkedIn profile.
  • For most entry-level jobs, your resume will first be filtered by an applicant tracking system for keywords. Look closely at the description of the job you are applying for and mirror the language as much as possible (while being honest and accurate about your skills and experience).
  • Keep your CV professional and in a simple format – make sure you tailor your cover letter and application to the company and role.
  • Go online and look for details on job specifications for your target position. Make a list of skills required and set yourself some learning goals to tick off all the necessary skills one by one.
  • Don’t be afraid to reach outside your immediate friends and family to other acquaintances and let them know you are looking for new opportunities.
  • Make sure you’ve set your LinkedIn profile to signal that you are “open to opportunities”. Also be sure to use LinkedIn to search for people who are still actively hiring by searching for those that have the headline “I’m hiring” or “We’re hiring” in their profile.
  • Prepare for online interviews using mock interview tools. Even before landing interviews, it can be useful to start practising.
  • Be professional and patient. Always be professional with whoever you are interacting with throughout your search process, this will be remembered. You need to be patient, dedicated and not give up on your search. Candidates need to make sure they are following up appropriately for roles they have applied.
