Hard to imagine that Donald Trump is going to take this one as a compliment.
As of Friday morning, the Donald Trump baby blimp has officially taken to the skies above London. The blimp has been organised as part of the anti-Trump protests taking place throughout the UK during the president’s visit.
ITV News is showing a live feed of the blimp as it looms over the city.
The blimp took off at half past nine this morning.

London Mayor Sadiq Khan gave permission for protesters to fly the blimp over the city last week, acknowledging the act as a legitimate form of protest.
However, there are many constraints, literally. The blimp cannot be set free, and must remain tethered to the ground. It also can’t be flown above a certain height.
