Trump sent certificate to British police after last visit

DONALD TRUMP sent certificates to British police who protected him from protesters on his visit last year.

Officers from Operation Manifold were presented with the certificates at an award ceremony in March hosted by Thames Valley police.

Multiple constabularies were involved in providing security including over 100 officers from the Ministry of Defence Police, which publicised the awards in its latest newsletter on Friday.

It said that the recipients included a PC Roger Hall who was the officer in charge of “protest removal and heights access.”

The certificates thanked British bobbies for their “contribution towards the successful delivery of a safe and secure visit of the President of the United States.”

Mr Trump’s 2018 visit cost British police forces £14 million.

Officers are now gearing up for the president’s arrival in Britain today where he will meet the Queen for a state visit amid another massive security operation.
