During the nonviolent protest, one member announced, “Ladies and gentlemen, we’re here today to make a non-violent, peaceful citizen’s arrest.”

The arrest attempt comes after Khan shot back at Trump’s decision to not visit the country, with Khan tweeting the American president “got the message” that he was “not welcome” in London after the President cancelled his trip.

Following the removal of the protesters, Khan took a jab at Trump, telling his audience: “It is a pleasure to be here even though we were distracted by the actions of what some would call very stable geniuses.”
