And he said the Queen should scrap the state banquet at Buckingham Palace in Mr Trump's honour.

Asked about the President's treatment of women, Mr Khan told LBC: "The impression is given you can get away with it, it's like a get out of jail card.

"There's a boasting and bragging, it's almost a green light for others to behave badly."

He said the PM should tell Mr Trump she disagrees with his behaviour during the President's state visit.

Mr Khan said: "We're their closest mates, that give us a responsibility to call people out.

"We should say to President Trump when he's here - listen, we may have a special relationship, we may agree on most things but I think you're wrong on A, B, C, D, E.

"The Prime Minister has an opportunity to meet President Trump and she can use the opportunity to call him out on some of these things."

He said he would refuse to attend the state dinner hosted by the Queen, adding: "We shouldn't be rolling out the red carpet, we shouldn't have a state banquet."

Mr Khan has publicly clashed with Mr Trump on multiple occasions.

The President claims the Mayor is soft on terrorism while Mr Khan wants to see his state visit called off.
