Donald Trump reignited his feud with Sadiq Khan with a stinging lash on the 'disastrous' mayor as London's blood-drenched streets saw three murders in 24 hours.
The US President tweeted, 'London needs a new mayor ASAP,' as he warned things 'will only get worse,' with Khan at the helm.
Khan's office fought the fire by stating the mayor 'has been in regular touch with Senior Met police officers last night and throughout the day,' as London's death toll rose to 59.
The pair clashed when Trump jetted in for a state visit earlier this month, with the Mayor of London dubbing him a 'fascist' before Air Force One had even taken off.
Two teenagers were murdered within 12 minutes of each other, 12 miles apart in the capital on Friday, while a man was stabbed to death on Saturday afternoon.
