London mayor Sadiq Khan says death threats made against him have increased since Donald Trump was elected president. In comments reported by Daily Mail, Khan links the rise in threats to Trump and to Trump’s “nativist” supporters, arguing that the rhetoric associated with that political group has helped drive hostility toward him. Khan’s statement is presented alongside a specific figure: he claims the number of death threats increased by about 2,000% after Trump’s election to the White House. The report frames Khan’s remarks as a continuation of his public feud with Trump. It does not provide additional independent verification of the exact percentage in the excerpts supplied, nor does it detail the source of the threat figures or how they are measured. Overall, the coverage centers on Khan’s claim that changes in the political climate following Trump’s election are reflected in a sharp rise in threats directed at him.
