Protesters gather in Oxford to oppose Trump's 'divisive' travel ban

Protesters have lined Oxford's streets to show their opposition to President Trump's travel ban on people from seven Muslim-majority and refugees entering the US.

'Oxford Stands with Muslims' campaigners believe the ban promotes a false image that Muslims and refugees are a threat, and that this will incite racist attacks.

Protests have been taking place around the country - including in Brighton, Hastings and Portsmouth.

Donald Trump signed an executive order on Friday which he said was aimed at keeping "radical Islamic terrorists" out of the US. The order banned refugees from Syria arriving in the US indefinitely and put a 90-day ban on entry to the US to all citizens from Iraq, Syria, Iran, Sudan, Libya, Somalia and Yemen.

More than 1.3 million people have signed a petition against President Trump making an official UK state visit later this year.
