# US President Donald Trump has said he “didn’t want” London mayor Sir Sadiq Khan at the state banquet hosted by the King at Windsor Castle. Sir Sadiq did not attend the state banquet, and according to the BBC, he did not seek or expect an invitation. The pair’s long-running row dates back to 2015 when the Labour politician condemned Trump’s suggestion that Muslims should be banned from travelling to the US. Trump’s second state visit to the UK was largely marked by pomp and ceremony, but thousands of protesters gathered in Parliament Square for a rally against the visit.
