UK’s PM Theresa May’s spokesman issued the following statement in respect to the retweets…

“Britain First seeks to divide communities by their use of hateful narratives that peddle lies and stoke tensions. They cause anxiety to law-abiding people. British people overwhelmingly reject the prejudiced rhetoric of the far right which is the antithesis of the values this country represents, decency, tolerance and respect.”

In a Wednesday evening tweet, Trump fired back at the UK Prime Minister over her statement…

“[email protected]_May, don’t focus on me, focus on the destructive Radical Islamic Terrorism that is taking place within the United Kingdom. We are doing just fine!”

London’s Muslim mayor, Sadiq Khan said May should withdraw an offer of a state visit to Britain which has already been extended.

President Trump has used Twitter to promote a vile, extremist group that exists solely to sow division and hatred in our country. It’s increasingly clear that any official visit from President Trump to Britain would not be welcomed. https://t.co/rwJJ5saSAb pic.twitter.com/bus3kMWIfk — Mayor of London (@MayorofLondon) November 30, 2017
