LONDON — More than 360,000 people, angered by Donald J. Trump’s call to ban the entry of Muslims into the United States, have signed a petition accusing him of hate speech and asking the British government to bar him from the country.

So many people have signed the online petition that Parliament is now required to consider debating the matter.

The text of the petition, titled “Block Donald J. Trump from U.K. entry,” cited British laws against hate speech.

“The U.K. has banned entry to many individuals for hate speech,” it says. “The same principles should apply to everyone who wishes to enter the U.K. If the United Kingdom is to continue applying the ‘unacceptable behavior’ criteria to those who wish to enter its borders, it must be fairly applied to the rich as well as poor, and the weak as well as powerful.”
