London mayor: I have more important things to do than respond to Trump’s ‘ill-informed tweet’
London mayor Sadiq Khan’s spokesperson responded to criticism from President Trump on Sunday by saying Khan had “more important things to do” than respond.
Khan’s spokesperson said that the mayor too is busy coordinating the response to the “horrific and cowardly terrorist attack” to fully respond to Trump’s early Sunday morning tweet, BuzzFeed News reported.
At least 7 dead and 48 wounded in terror attack and Mayor of London says there is “no reason to be alarmed!”

“Londoners will see an increased police presence today and over the course of the next few days,” Khan said following the attacks. “There’s no reason to be alarmed. One of the things the police and all of us need to do is ensure that we’re as safe as we possibly can be.”
