London Mayor Sadiq Khan says he has seen a rise in death threats against him following Donald Trump’s election to the White House. In separate reports, Khan is described as linking the increase to broader political tensions and to support he associates with Trump and his “nativist” followers. One outlet reports Khan reacts sharply toward Trump, saying the threats have surged since the election. Another outlet adds that Khan claims the number of death threats against him rose by 2,000% after Trump’s win. The reports frame Khan’s comments as part of an ongoing political disagreement between him and Trump, with Khan urging attention to the threat level he says he is facing. The articles do not provide detailed breakdowns of how the figures were compiled or verified, but they consistently attribute the claimed increase in threats to the period after Trump was elected and present Khan’s statements as the source of the specific percentage figure.
