Donald Trump has performed a climbdown in a row with Theresa May over his sharing of inflammatory videos by the far-Right Britain First group.

The US President said he is prepared to apologise after he caused outrage in Britain for retweeting three anti-Muslim clips to his 40 million Twitter followers.

Mrs May rebuked Mr Trump in November for sharing material from a "hateful organisation" that "seeks to spread mistrust and division within our communities".

But in an interview with ITV's Good Morning Britain, Trump said he had known nothing about Britain First when he made the social media postings.

Challenged on whether he would apologise for the furore, Trump said: "If you are telling me they're horrible people, horrible racist people, I would certainly apologise if you'd like me to do that."
