6.45pm

Mr Farage said he came away from the meeting with the impression that the US was ready to do a post-Brexit trade deal with the UK but that the Government were unprepared.

He added: “What was most interesting about the meeting was trade… The Americans are very, very prepared for their side of the negotiation.”

He said Mr Trump and US Ambassador Woody Johnson told him the US team had a 13-chapter plan “where they have pretty much completed the work”.

“When I asked the extent to which the British were ready for this, I got the impression we are pretty much behind the curve all the way.”

He called for an independent delegation of business leaders to travel to the US and negotiate in the meantime.

He continued: “My big take from that meeting an hour ago is America is prepared for this and we simply aren’t.”

6.40pm

Nigel Farage has revealed he met Donald Trump this afternoon following a “private invitation”.

Speaking during his LBC show, the Brexit Party leader said: “I think most people will agree yesterday went very, very well. Certainly Donald Trump was very pleased with it.

He went on: “Clearly, it was a private meeting but what I can say is he was in top form, he was ebullient.

“He absolutely believes in Brexit, thinks it’s the right thing for the country to do. He’s obviously concerned it’s taking a very long time.”

6.15pm

Former cabinet ministers Iain Duncan Smith and Owen Paterson have also met Donald Trump.

A spokeswoman for former Tory leader Mr Duncan Smith said the meeting had “been in the offing for a while”.

The meeting “covered a whole range of subjects including Brexit”.

Mr Blackford added: “Donald Trump, you’re wrong and you’re not going to destroy our planet.”

He spoke about Mr Trump’s Scottish heritage, telling the crowd: “To see Donald Trump turn his back on migrants, when he himself comes from a family of immigrants, is morally reprehensible.”

“You’re a figment of the fake news media and according to Donald the British are greeting him warmly on the streets of London right now, so he has invited us to work with him as the twin pillars of the new modern civilisation.”

Mocking the president, Eno told the cheering crowd: “We should show the world what civilisation really looks like. Let’s make torture and racism great again. Let’s put Mexicans in cages, let’s sell lethal weapons, pesticides and opioids to anyone who can pay for them.”

“Even coming over today there were thousands of people cheering.

“Then I heard there were protests, I said ‘Where are the protests? I don’t see any protests’.

“I did see a small protest today when I came – very small – so a lot of it is fake news I hate to say.”

On Jeremy Corbyn, President Trump said he did “not know him, never met him, never spoke to him” but claimed to have turned down an offer to meet the Labour leader on a different occasion.

He said: “He wanted to meet today or tomorrow and I decided I would not do that.

“I think he is from where I come from somewhat of a negative force.

“I think the people should look to do things correctly as opposed to criticise – I really don’t like critics as much as I like and respect people who get things done – so I decided not to meet.”

A Labour spokesman said: “Jeremy Corbyn proposed a meeting with Donald Trump during the president’s visit.

“Jeremy is ready to engage with the president on a range of issues, including the climate emergency, threats to peace and the refugee crisis.”

2.44pm

Mr Trump also referred to his contacts with Tory leadership hopefuls Boris Johnson and Michael Gove, as well as with Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt who was at the press conference.

Prime Minster Theresa May added: “But the point in making trade deals is of course that both sides negotiate and come to an agreement about what should or should not be in that trade deal for the future.”

2.33pm

Mr Trump said he believed Brexit should and will happen.

Saying that he had “predicted” what was going to happen with the vote to leave the EU, he said: “I thought it was going to happen because of immigration more than anything else but probably it happens for a lot of reasons. But I would say, yeah, I would think that it will say that it will happen and it probably should happen.

“This is a great, great country and it wants its own identity. It wants to have its own borders, it wants to run its own affairs. This is a very, very special place and I think it deserves a special place.”

He praised the Prime Minister for doing “a very good job” in getting the Brexit negotiations to this point.

2.30pm

President Trump promised a “phenomenal” trade deal following Brexit.

He said: “Our nations have more than 1 trillion dollars invested in each other’s economics…

“There is tremendous potential in that trade deal, I say probably two and even three times what we’re doing right now.”

“When Russia used a deadly nerve agent on the streets of our country, alongside the UK’s expulsions the president expelled 60 Russian intelligence officers, the largest contribution towards an unprecedented global response.”

“We are the living embodiment of what a democratic society is about, where people come together not to exploit their differences but to share the joy of learning something from each other and from each other’s experiences, that others may not go through the hardship that so many have gone through to bring about some of the social changes we’ve achieved.”

He was joined by his fellow MPs in the crowd including Ruqa Huq and Tracey Brabin.

She said Mr Trump is “best friends with Nigel Farage and Boris Johnson”, prompting boos from the crowd.

More on the potential meeting between Michael Gove and the president.

A source close to the Environment Secretary told the Press Association: “Mr Gove was asked last night by Mr Trump’s team if he would be able to meet the president today. He said yes. Nothing has been fixed yet.”

The source indicated the meeting was likely to be on a one-to-one basis, which could prove embarrassing to Theresa May as her talks with the president are likely to involve senior ministers and officials rather than just the two leaders.

Sadiq Khan defended his party leader Jeremy Corbyn’s decision to boycott a state dinner at Buckingham Palace for Mr Trump.

Mr Corbyn attended a state dinner for Chinese president Xi Jinping in 2015, despite protests around the leader’s visit.

Asked if Mr Corbyn’s behaviour was hypocritical, the London Mayor said: “My views are quite clear and I think Jeremy Corbyn’s are not dissimilar which is ‘yes we should have a close relationship with the president of the USA, yes he should be able to come here on a working visit’.

“What shouldn’t happen is a state banquet and a state visit with the red carpet rolled out. I think it’s inappropriate. I think those visits should be reserved for leaders who have done something and deserve that. I think it sends the wrong message to be seen to condone some of the things this president has said and done.”

10.57am

During the business breakfast Mr Trump said it was an honour to have worked with Mrs May, who is standing down as Prime Minister.

The president said: “I’d just like to congratulate you on having done a fantastic job on behalf of the people of the United States, and it’s an honour to have worked with you.

His closing remarks were greeted with laughter by those attending: “And I don’t know exactly what your timing is, but stick around. Let’s do this deal, okay?”
