Protests planned as Egyptian president departs for UK visit

Hundreds of people are expected to join protests outside Downing Street against the visit of the Egyptian president, Abdel Fatah al-Sisi, who is accused of a catalogue of human rights abuses.
A broad coalition of Egyptian and British groups has called for demonstrations on Wednesday night and Thursday morning, when the former army chief will hold talks at No 10. Sisi set off for his visit on early on Wednesday morning, Egyptian state media said.
