Four men bailed over Windsor protest

Following the incident where images of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein were projected onto Windsor Castle, four individuals have been arrested and subsequently granted bail by the police. The arrests were made on suspicion of various offenses such as malicious communications and public nuisance in relation to the projection of the US president and the deceased convicted sex offender before Trump’s state visit to the UK. Thames Valley Police confirmed that the four men have been released on conditional bail until December 12th, pending further investigation. The individuals taken into custody were a 60-year-old from East Sussex, a 36-year-old, a 50-year-old from London, and a 37-year-old from Kent.

During Trump’s visit to Windsor, he engaged with King Charles and other senior royals as part of his historic second state visit to the UK. Footage of Trump alongside Epstein, a disgraced financier who passed away in custody in 2019, was projected onto an external wall of the castle. The display included quotes and headlines regarding their association. Additionally, a van was spotted in Windsor showcasing an image of Trump and Epstein with a welcoming message to the US president. Trump’s acquaintance with Epstein dates back to the 1990s and early 2000s, with Trump never facing formal allegations of misconduct in relation to the convicted sex offender.

Trump’s official visit follows a recent event where Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer dismissed the UK’s ambassador to the US, Lord Mandelson, due to new revelations regarding his ties to Epstein. The state visit, which featured various ceremonies, predominantly occurred within the confines of Windsor Castle. While protests did occur in London and to a lesser extent in Windsor, the majority of the visit’s activities were shielded from public view. Trump is scheduled to meet Sir Keir at the Prime Minister’s official country residence, Chequers, on Thursday
