«Breaking News» Police Scotland spent £3.2million on Donald Trump's visit when he stayed at his own hotel

Police Scotland spent more than £3million on Donald Trump's private visit last summer, it has been revealed.

The force had to arrange for hundreds of officers to attend protests and other events during the US President's trip in July.

He spent two nights at Trump Turnberry resort in Ayrshire after meeting the Queen and holding talks with Theresa May.  

Despite the short stay, it was costly. 

The force has disclosed it spent £3.2million over its usual budget to provide policing for the visit.

In response to a freedom of information request from the Guardian, Police Scotland said 5,537 personnel had claimed overtime or time off in lieu, with the overtime bill reaching nearly £1.6million.

Acting Chief Constable Iain Livingstone had to cancel leave and rest days to ensure sufficient manpower for the visit.

Police officers used hundreds of hours of overtime during the visit which cost Police Scotland more than £3million 

Protests included a paraglider who said the president was 'well below par'

Scottish Green co-convener Patrick Harvie told the paper: 'The public will be appalled at the cost we are all paying as a result of the UK Government fawning over this bigoted bully.

'He should never have been invited and Police Scotland should send the bill not to the UK Government but to Trump himself, as his visit was part business expense, part ego trip.'

During his stay a number of protests took place. One man was arrested after he floated down to the hotel on a paraglider.

Calum Steele, general secretary of the Scottish Police Federation, told the Guardian: 'The President of the United States did not visit the UK to meet the Prime Minister of England.

'The policing costs were considerable and unless met will leave the service with diminished capacity and capability to deliver policing in Scotland, especially at a time of shrinking budgets.'

Justice Secretary Humza Yousaf asked the UK Government to cover the costs.

Treasury minister Liz Truss has confirmed the UK Government will be footing the bill.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
