00:00There has been a long-running feud between Donald Trump and the London mayor Sadiq Khan,
00:13who accused the American leader of encouraging divisive far-right politics around the world
00:20as he landed in Britain for his state visit last Tuesday.
00:25Speaking to reporters on Air Force One on Thursday, Trump said he did not want Sadiq Khan attending any part of the state visit,
00:37and then went on to claim that Sir Sadiq had wanted to be part of the event, but that Mr Trump asked that he not be.
00:47Trump also said he believed Khan is among the worst mayors in the world.
00:53Sir Sadiq is understood to have made it clear weeks ago that he did not seek or expect an invite to events held for the state visit.
01:04The two men's spat dates back to at least 2015, when Khan condemned the then-president,
01:13presidential hopeful's suggestion that Muslims should be banned from travelling to the US.
01:19The row intensified when the president criticised the mayor's response to the London Bridge terror attack.
01:29In 2018, Sir Sadiq's office gave permission for an inflatable depicting Mr Trump as a baby to fly in Parliament Square during a previous visit.
