IVANKA 'A BANKER' Ivanka Trump is expected to come to Britain for US President’s state visit in June

IVANKA TRUMP is expected to come to Britain next month as part of the US President’s state visit, The Sun can reveal.

Ministers have sparked fevered speculation the ‘First Daughter’ will be on the plane by circulating plans for a ‘women’s economic empowerment’ strategy.
Ms Trump launched a global drive to boost women’s economic security three months ago.
A senior Government source said: “There’s no confirmation as yet, but she’s expected to be coming.”
A five-page draft empowerment plan was circulated two weeks ago by Ministers.
It includes a call for schools to publish the proportion of girls taking maths, science and STEM subjects in the hope more will sign up.
Another proposal suggests bringing forward ‘auto-enrolment’ on pensions for women – to ensure more have sufficient savings in later life.
A separate plan moots greater support for lone parents in low-paid jobs.

IVANKA 'A BANKER' TO JOIN DAD

One Cabinet source said the strategy was expected to be unveiled “in June”.
President Trump arrives in the UK on June 3 before D-Day celebrations.
Ivanka – dubbed the ‘First Daughter’ - has taken on the cause of women’s rights ever since her father entered the White House.
She launched a drive in February to help bring economic security to 50million women across the world by 2025.

EQUALITY DRIVE

Penny Mordaunt, who has retained the Government’s equalities brief despite becoming Defence Secretary, is thought to be driving the UK’s women’s empowerment strategy with Pensions Secretary Amber Rudd.
Ms Mordaunt met Ivanka Trump in March during a visit to the US.
A senior source told The Sun: “The women’s empowerment whole issue has suddenly come back on the agenda here. I’m sure they’re getting this ready in case she comes.”
