State visits by world leaders are a ceremonial exhibition of the very best the British state can mobilize, with palatial grandeur, royal pomp, and military tribute, all capped by a glorious state banquet with the King to cement alliances and mutual respect.
Trump this week is receiving the honour for a second time – but not everyone wants to get involved in such a historic occasion.
Sir Ed Davey, leader of Britain’s third biggest party in parliament, the Liberal Democrats, has rejected his invitation – and joins Piers Morgan to explain why.
Then Piers Morgan discusses the state visit with co-host of The Verdict with Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson, host of the Winston Marshall Show, Winston Marshall and former Conservative MP and Trump critic Louise Mensch.
