he'd be pushing the Queen out of the way to have a seat in the first pew.

...with the biggest, most fragile ego in the world. Nobody more fragile, believe me!

He cannot tolerate an environment he can't tightly control.

And in England, he'd have no control whatsoever.

No buffer at all between him and throngs of people berating him in places he can't escape from.

It's be like he was a kid again, with Fred yelling at him about how worthless he is, except with a hundred thousand voices.

That he probably was not welcome there, and he's lying , again. He lies 98% of the time. No country will want him visiting before long. I'm surprised countries haven't changed all his tax exemptions to force him out doing business in their countries.

against the London Mayor after he had said "good thing Trump got the message":

Boris Johnson attacks Labour in row over cancelled Trump visit

Boris Johnson has intervened in a row over Donald Trump’s decision to cancel a visit to London amid the threat of mass protests, accusing the Labour party of putting US-UK relations at risk.

In a tweet that contradicted the government’s position on the issue and seemingly took Downing Street by surprise, the foreign secretary blamed Jeremy Corbyn and the mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, saying: “The US is the biggest single investor in the UK – yet Khan & Corbyn seem determined to put this crucial relationship at risk. We will not allow US-UK relations to be endangered by some puffed up pompous popinjay in City Hall.”

Earlier, Khan had tweeted his delight that Trump had called off the proposed visit to open the new US embassy in south London next month, saying the US president was not welcome in the city and “he’s finally got that message”. Corbyn is opposed to any state visit by Trump to the UK.

So whatever the Brits say is more than likely the truth...or real close to it.
