Zuma

The South African President Zuma has arrived in the UK amid a torrent of insults, causing fears of a diplomatic row.

"Vile buffoon" and "sex-obsessed bigot" were among the UK headlines that have sparked controversy at the start of President Zuma's first state visit to the UK since his inauguration last May.

High on the agenda for discussions with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown are the World Cup, Zimbabwe, Education and Climate Change.
