Bush flies in to Fortress London

Simon Jeffery and agencies
Tuesday November 18, 2003


The US president, George Bush, today boarded Air Force One to fly to London for the most heavily-policed state visit in British history.

Mr Bush will arrive at RAF Northolt, in Middlesex, this evening. He will travel to Buckingham Palace by helicopter, where a private welcome from the Prince of Wales begins a four-day itinerary taking in meetings with the prime minister and the main party leaders, and a banquet with the Queen.

The first protest against Mr Bush is scheduled to coincide with his arrival. At 6pm, enviromental campaigners will march from Lincoln's Inn Fields, in central London, to the US embassy to demonstrate against his support for the oil industry and refusal to sign the Kyoto protocol on climate change.
