President Donald Trump said at the United Nations on Tuesday that London wants to establish Sharia Law and warned against it.

Trump called out London Mayor Sadiq Khan, the first Muslim mayor of the U.K. capital, with whom he has quarreled since 2016.

“I look at London, where you have a terrible mayor, terrible, terrible mayor, and it’s been so changed, so changed. Now they want to go to Sharia Law, but you’re in a different country. You can’t do that,” Trump said.

“Both the immigration and their suicidal energy ideas will be the death of Western Europe if something is not done immediately. This cannot be sustained,” he added.

The U.K. Labor Party has notably advocated for allowing Sharia courts in the United Kingdom.

Minister of State for Courts and Legal Services Sarah Sackman came out in full support of Sharia courts in the United Kingdom.

Labor MP for Finchley and Golders Green said Sharia courts would not be a state court of law but a court of faith.

“Sharia law forms no part of the law of England and Wales but in common with Christian, Jewish, and other courts of faith where people choose to put themselves before those councils, that’s part of the religious tolerance that is an important British value.”

Because most Sharia councils in the country have declined to sign onto the Arbitration Act of 1996, there is a shortage of oversight as to “how they function or provide recourse to those subjected to their rulings.”

Trump and Khan have long feuded, and Trump blocked Khan’s attendance at the Royal Banquet that King Charles hosted last Wednesday in Trump’s historic second state visit to the U.K.

Trump told GB News his reasoning for excluding Khan from the royal event.

“Oh, I didn’t want him there, I asked that he not be there. I don’t want that. I think the Mayor of London, Khan, is among the worst mayors in the world… I’ve not liked him for a long time. I have a certain pride in London, the UK, my mother was born in Scotland as you know. And when I see Mayor Khan doing a bad job with the stabbings, the dirt, the filth. It’s not the same.”

Khan responded to Trump’s comments about London desiring Sharia Law on Tuesday in a statement, calling them “bigoted” and unworthy of a response.

“London is the greatest city in the world, safer than major U.S. cities, and we’re delighted to welcome the record number of U.S. citizens moving here,” he added.

Trump’s warning about London reflects his broader concerns about immigration’s impact on Western European cities.

His exclusion of Khan from the Royal Banquet demonstrates his willingness to take concrete diplomatic action based on these concerns.

The President’s reference to his Scottish heritage shows personal investment in Britain’s future direction.

Khan’s defensive response fails to address the specific issues Trump raised about crime and urban decay.

The Labor Party’s support for Sharia courts validates Trump’s concerns about parallel legal systems developing in Britain.

The lack of oversight for most Sharia councils creates potential for abuse without proper legal recourse.

Trump’s characterization of European immigration and energy policies as “suicidal” reflects his assessment of current trajectories.

His public criticism of Khan on the international stage elevates these concerns to global diplomatic significance.

The President’s comments highlight the tension between traditional Western values and accommodating different legal traditions.

Khan’s claim about London’s safety contrasts with Trump’s observations about increased violence and urban problems.

The dispute reveals fundamental disagreements about how Western societies should adapt to demographic changes.

Trump’s intervention in British domestic politics shows his commitment to supporting traditional Western values internationally.
