UK Prime Minister Theresa May has
criticised US President Donald Trump for calling on several Democratic
congresswomen
of colour to "go back". The outgoing PM called Mr Trump's words "completely unacceptable", according to her spokesperson.
Mr Trump said the women "originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe".
He was referring to four congresswomen - three who were born in the US and one who came as a child refugee.
His remarks were widely condemned as racist, and as having gone beyond previous statements and actions by the president that drew allegations of racism.
Prospective Democratic presidential candidates denounced Mr Trump's tweets as racist and divisive. Republican Party representatives largely kept quiet.
