"People are wondering what it is about this Muslim mayor who leads a liberal, multi-cultural, progressive and successful city, that means I appear to be living rent-free inside Donald Trump's head."
"I think President Trump has shown he is racist, he is sexist, he is misogynistic and he is Islamophobic."
"Where people choose to put themselves before those councils, in common with Christian, Jewish and other courts of faith, that is part of religious tolerance which is an important British value."
Donald Trump told the UN General Assembly that London had "a terrible, terrible mayor" and said "Now they want to go to Sharia law." Sadiq Khan responded by calling Trump racist, sexist, misogynistic and Islamophobic and questioned why a Muslim mayor leading a liberal, multicultural, progressive and successful city appears to occupy Trump's thoughts. Khan noted record numbers of Americans visiting London and pointed to cultural rankings showing London often leads globally. The UK has religious courts, including Sharia councils, whose rulings are not legally binding. The justice minister stated Sharia law forms no part of the law of England and Wales and described faith courts as part of religious tolerance.
