Sadiq Khan today claimed Londoners had 'slammed the door shut' on Donald Trump's 'brand of hard-right populism' as he began his historic third term as mayor.

The Labour politician returned to his personal feud with the former US president following his victory in last week's mayoral election in the capital.

Speaking at a declaration of office ceremony held in the Tate Modern, Mr Khan blasted comments made last week by Mr Trump.

The Republican hopeful, who is bidding for a return to the White House, claimed London was 'unrecognisable' because it had 'opened its doors to jihad'.

But Mr Khan said Mr Trump 'couldn't be more wrong', adding: 'The truth is, through the results of this election Londoners have slammed the door shut on his brand of hard-right populism.

'Londoners have said no to racism, no to division and no to hate, and yes once again to diversity, unity and hope.'

The mayor, dressed in a green linen suit from Hackney-based Percival, stood behind a lectern which read 'London for Everyone' as he hailed the capital as 'a city of progress, pluralism and endless possibility'.

He added London's story was 'one written by people of all faiths, all ethnicities and all backgrounds'.
