London Tube explosion: British police dismiss Donald Trump tweet about terror suspect as ‘speculation’

Donald Trump's tweet claiming that the perpetrator behind an explosion on a Tube train was known to British security services is "speculation", police say.



"We don't even know who the suspects are so it's a bit difficult to say," a spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police told The Independent. "It's just speculation."

The US President used the terror attack in Parsons Green to call for a "far larger, tougher" travel ban in the US.

"Another attack in London by loser terrorist," Mr Trump tweeted. "These are sick and demented people who were in the sights of Scotland Yard."
