Britain's left-wing Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn has snubbed an invitation to a state dinner featuring President Trump when Trump visits London in June -- foreshadowing the controversy that Trump's visit will likely spark.

“Theresa May should not be rolling out the red carpet for a state visit to honor a president who rips up vital international treaties, backs climate change denial and uses racist and misogynist rhetoric,” Corbyn said in a statement.

TRUMP TO VISIT UK, FRANCE IN JUNE FOR D-DAY ANNIVERSARY

Trump is visiting the U.K. from June 3-5 to mark the anniversary of D-Day, before traveling to France.

But Corbyn, who came close to entering 10 Downing Street after a tight 2017 general election, has long been a critic of Trump -- particularly on the question of immigration. He called for Trump’s working visit last year to be canceled over the controversy surrounding family separation at the border.

However, he said that he would “welcome a meeting with President Trump to discuss all matters of interest."

Liberal Democrat Leader Vince Cable and House of Commons Speaker John Bercow, who had previously opposed Trump addressing Parliament, have also refused the invitation, according to The Times of London. Left-wing activists have already scheduled protests for Trump's visit, similar to those that Trump's working visit saw last year.

"My administration looks forward to negotiating a large scale Trade Deal with the United Kingdom,” he tweeted last month. “The potential is unlimited!”
