Serving officers today claimed Donald Trump is right to
say London's police are frightened in Muslim areas of London despite
Scotland Yard saying the tycoon 'couldn't be more wrong'.
Several Met officers have said 'Islamification' of the
capital is happening and revealed they do need to be 'extra vigilant' and even
abandon using uniforms on some estates.
The US presidential contender Donald Trump caused
worldwide consternation after a string of incendiary remarks, including in
Britain when he said: 'We have places in London and other places that are so
radicalised that police are afraid for their own lives.'
Scotland Yard hit back last night but one serving officer
has said: 'Islamification has and is occurring', adding: 'You have to have
extra vigilance in certain parts when you are working'.
It came as more than 100,000 people - five people every
second - signed a petition demanding Mr Trump is banned from Britain for being
a 'hate preacher'.
Mr Trump has said the US should close its borders to all
Muslim migrants. MPs responded by calling for the property tycoon to be stopped
from entering Britain, where he owns several golf courses.
Scotland Yard said last night Mr Trump could come to the
UK for a security briefing after his comments.
