In a recent address to the UN General Assembly, U.S. President Donald Trump falsely claimed that London sought to implement sharia law under its mayor, Sadiq Khan. Trump described Khan as a "terrible" mayor and suggested that London had "changed" under his leadership. These remarks have been widely condemned by UK Labour MPs, who have urged Prime Minister Keir Starmer to take action against Trump's "bigoted" statements. A spokesperson for Khan dismissed Trump's comments, emphasizing London's safety and its appeal to American citizens.
