US president Donald Trump has provoked criticism from British government with retweet of several anti-Muslim videos. It is wrong to redistribute videos that had been shared by Vice-Chairman of anti-Islamic organization Britain First, Jayda Fringe, said a spokesman for head of government Theresa May.

“Britain First tries to divide communities by ir hateful utterances that contain lies and fuel tensions. They create fear in righteous people, “said a government spokesman. “The British reject rhetoric of extreme right, charged with prejudice, which contradicts values of this country: decency, tolerance and respect.” However, a state visit trumps planned for 2018 will not be cancelled.
Specifically, Trump tweeted a fringed video that shows how a man in traditional Muslim clothing and with a long beard drops an artistically designed figure to ground and lets it be shattered. The figure should be an image of Virgin Mary. On anor of Trump’s more widespread video fringes is to see how a dark-haired young man beats and tramples a blond young man. Supposedly this is an assault of a young Muslim on a Dutch man.
In a third video, a man supposedly tries to push a person walking on crutches from a roof. The aunticity of films is not documented, in parts y appear. Fransen said videos came from various locations on Internet.

The White House defended tweets. The president wanted to express with retweets that he was in favour of strong borders and national security, said Trump’s spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders. Wher videos are real doesn’t matter. “No matter if it’s a real video, threat is real.” May and or politicians would know. Trump wants to talk about threat.
Britain-first politician already convicted of religious insult
Trump had pronounced himself in USA during campaign for EinEinreiseverbot for Muslims. AlsPräsident has made several attempts to tighten up dieEinreisevorschriften, but has been vonGerichtenly slowed down. Representatives of US Democrats showed mselves indignant about Trump’s retweets. It was “shocking and horrible” to see such a Islamophobia at a president, said Don Beyer, a member of United States House of Representatives from Virginia.
In United Kingdom, members of opposition Labour Party also condemned trumps. Labour chief Jeremy Corbyn called retweets on Twitter “abominable, dangerous and a danger to our society”.
Fransen was recently sentenced to a fine because she had insulted a Muslim woman in a hijab religiously. Britain First was founded in 2011 by members of right-wing British National Party (BNP). In June 2016, a violent offender had called words “Britain First” after murdering parliamentarian Jo Cox a few days before Brexit vote. Cox’s widower responded shaken to Trump’s tweets. “Trump has legitimized extreme rights in his country, now he is trying to do it in our country,” Brendan Cox told. “Spreading hatred has consequences, and president should be ashamed.”
