26th September 2025
U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Thursday defended London Mayor Sadiq Khan following President Donald Trump’s statement that Khan was “terrible” and wanted to put Britain’s capital under Islamic religious law, calling the claim “ridiculous.”
Trump made the comments during his address at the United Nations General Assembly Tuesday.
“I look at London where you have a terrible mayor, a terrible, terrible mayor,” the president said.
