DONALD Trump won’t address parliament on his state visit to the UK like French President Emmanuel Macron did.

The Sun understands the US President’s trip has been timed for when the Commons takes a recess break in mid-September.

Sir Keir Starmer had been facing a potential headache with backbench Labour MPs threatening to boycott any potential address by Mr Trump.

An empty Parliament would’ve been a huge embarrassment to the commander-in-chief and a huge blow to the PM’s carefully choreographed relationship with the US.

Now Sir Keir has avoided an embarrassing whinge from Labour MPs in the face of an address.

Mr Trump is set to touch down in two months for a historic second state visit.

But unlike traditional itineraries he is not expected to visit Buckingham Palace or take a ceremonial carriage ride down the Mall in London.

A lack of Parliament address will separate Mr Trump from predecessors including Barack Obama and Bill Clinton.
