Donald Trump is 'racist, sexist and Islamophobic', says Sadiq Khan amid feud with US president
Sadiq Khan calls Donald Trump 'racist, sexist, misogynistic, and Islamophobic' amid ongoing political tensions and false claims about London’s governance, officials say.
- On Tuesday, Mayor of London Sir Sadiq Khan said in response to the UN remarks that `I think President Trump has shown he is racist, he is sexist, he is misogynistic, and he's Islamophobic.`
- During last week's state visit, US President Donald Trump escalated the feud by calling Mayor of London Sir Sadiq Khan 'among the worst mayors in the world' and saying he asked that the mayor not attend events.
- Backing Sir Sadiq, Work and Pensions Secretary Pat McFadden said the president's attack stemmed from 'a beef' with the mayor, while Labour MPs including Wes Streeting rejected the Sharia claim.
- Refusing to be drawn in, Sir Sadiq said he was 'indifferent to President Trump' and a spokesperson said he was 'not going to dignify his appalling and bigoted comments with a response'.
- The exchange is the latest flare-up in a long-running feud, with US President Donald Trump's UN General Assembly remarks prompting some Labour MPs to call for the US ambassador to be summoned.
