Hitting the newswires and newstands around the world today is the news that Bush has said he welcomes the protests against his UK State Visit planned for next week. He made the comments during a brief Q and A session in the oval office - these were reported by AP and syndicated around the world:

US President Bush said today he welcomes the massive protests expected in London during his visit next week because "I don't expect everybody in the world to agree with the positions I've taken."

"But certainly they should agree with the goals of the United States, which is peace and freedom."

"I'm so pleased to be going to a country which says that people are allowed to express their minds," Bush said. "That's fantastic. Freedom is a beautiful thing."

"The fact that people are willing to come and express themselves - I'm going to a great country,"
