London mayor calls for cancellation of Trump visit to UK


Trump criticized Khan for his comments following the weekend terror attack in London that killed at least seven people and wounded dozens more.
"At least 7 dead and 48 wounded in terror attack and Mayor of London says there is 'no reason to be alarmed!'" Trump tweeted Sunday morning.

Trump appeared to be referencing Khan's comments earlier in the day in which he said there was no reason to worry about the increased police presence in London.
Khan's spokesperson said Sunday that he wouldn't respond to Trump's tweet, saying he had "more important things to do."
"He has more important things to do than respond to Donald Trump's ill-informed tweet that deliberately takes out of context his remarks urging Londoners not to be alarmed when they saw more police - including armed officers - on the streets," the spokesperson said.
Khan has previously called for Trump to be denied a state visit in Britain. He pointed to Trump's executive order barring refugees and people from seven predominantly Muslim countries from entering the U.S. as his reason, calling the order "cruel."
"In those circumstances, we shouldn't be rolling out the red carpet," he said.
