UK-Scotland Dispute: Who Pays for Trump and Vance's Visits?

The UK and Scottish governments are in a heated debate over a £26 million bill for policing and security during Donald Trump and JD Vance's visits to Scotland. The Scottish government argues that these visits were diplomatically significant and part of UK international relations, with the prime minister meeting Trump. They point to a precedent set in 2018, where the UK government covered costs. However, the UK government insists these were private visits, citing the lack of an official invitation. The dispute has sparked anger among Scottish officials and police, who say the bill strains devolved budgets and sets a troubling precedent. Join us as we delve into the details of this costly controversy and explore the factors that made Trump's visit so expensive.
