Trump attack on London mayor is wrong, says No 10

The UK government has criticized former US President Donald Trump's comments about London Mayor Sadiq Khan. Trump's press secretary stated that Trump's remarks were "wrong". The criticism comes after Trump referred to Khan as a "stone-cold loser" and criticized his handling of crime in London. No. 10 Downing Street, the official residence of the UK Prime Minister, distanced itself from Trump's comments, stating that they do not agree with them. The government emphasized that the UK-US relationship is important, but that they will not hesitate to disagree with the US on certain issues. The dispute highlights the tensions between the UK and the US under the Trump administration, which had a strained relationship with Khan and other British leaders. The current government is seeking to maintain a constructive dialogue with the US, while also asserting its own positions on matters it disagrees with.
