Theresa May's decision to invite Donald Trump to
a state visit has put the Queen in a "very difficult
position", a former head of the Foreign Office
says.
In a letter to The Times, Lord Ricketts said the
offer had been "premature".
A petition calling for the state visit to be cancelled
has already gathered more than 1.5 million
signatures.
On Monday, thousands of people across the UK
joined protests against Mr Trump's travel ban on
seven mainly Muslim countries.
The controversial immigration measures prompted
an emergency debate in parliament on Monday.
