Trump complains Sadiq Khan (London's first Muslim mayor) has been 'very nasty' about him

[pampango]

When Piers Morgan, the presenter, asked Trump about Sadiq Khan calling him ignorant, Trump’s first response was: “Let’s do an IQ test.”

Responding to this, Khan’s spokesperson said: “Ignorance is not the same thing as lack of intelligence.”

Khan says Trump represents 'politics of fear at its worst'

And Sadiq Khan is not in the mood to back down either. Commenting on the Trump interview, a spokesperson for the London mayor said:

Donald Trump’s views are ignorant, divisive and dangerous. It’s the politics of fear at its worse.

It plays straight into the extremists’ hands and makes both our countries less safe.

2. Well I wish Barak Obama would take over the UK Labour party!

7. Sorry, I'm afraid Obama's far too right-wing for that to work.

I'd put the average US "Left" politician (Clinton, Obama..) at about what we'd think of as Centre-Right - about Cameron level.

8. Well, he could certainly engage with the UK left....

....and do so much more effectively than the overwhelming majority of current UK Labour politicians.

Personally, I like to see Khan get even "nastier". Someone needs to put Trump in his place.
