A controversial working visit to the UK by the President had been planned for January 2018 but was dropped by US diplomats following a recent Twitter spat.

After Prime Minister Theresa May criticised Trump for sharing far-Right videos about the UK without verifying the claims contained in it he hit back attacking her directly on Twitter.

Trump tweeted: “Theresa May, don’t focus on me, focus on the destructive Radical Islamic Terrorism that is taking place within the United Kingdom. We are doing just fine.”

Diplomats revealed the January plan had been abandoned amid the spat with no new date set.

A US diplomat told The Telegraph: “The idea of a visit has obviously been floated, but not December and not January.

“I would not expect a Trump visit in January.”

The videos that Trump shared came from far-Right group Britain First and contained a number of claims that were later found to be incorrect.

Mrs May responded saying: “I am very clear that retweeting from Britain First was the wrong thing to do.

Discussing the incident in Parliament Conservative MP Peter Bone suggested Trump should delete his Twitter account.

Mr Bone said: “One of the advantages of having such a special relationship with the United States is that when a friend tells us we have done something dreadfully wrong, we tend to listen.

“Would not the world be a better place if the Prime Minister could persuade the President of the United States to delete his Twitter account?”

While Home Secretary Amber Rudd appeared to back his statement saying that many MPs will share his view.

The Prime Minister was quick to criticised Britain First when asked if Trump sharing the videos “legitimised” the group.

While speaking on a visit to Jordan Mrs May said: “I think that we must all take seriously the threat that far-Right groups pose, both in terms of the terrorist threat that is posed by those groups and the necessity of dealing with extremist material which is far-Right as well.

“I have commented in the past on issues in the United States on this matter.

“In the United Kingdom we take the far-Right very seriously and that is why we ensure that we deal with these threats and this extremism wherever it comes and whatever its source.”

During the discussion in Parliament, it was suggested by Tory MP Tim Loughton that if Trump did not take the decision to delete his Twitter account the social media platform should do it for him.

He said: “About a month ago, the most popular man in the world was a last-day employee of Twitter who unplugged the account of the President of the United States.

“Was he not right? If Twitter is genuine in its commitment to fight hate crime online, it should have no hesitancy in taking down the Twitter account of the first citizen of the US, as it would that of any other citizen of the world who peddled such hate crime.”

The MP was referring to an incident that saw the President’s busy Twitter account silenced for 11 minutes after an employee disabled it on his last day.

The employee recently revealed his identity as Bahtiyar Duysak, a German contract worker.

Mr Duysak said that he regretted silencing Trump and claimed the move, which sparked a social media frenzy, was a “mistake”.

He said: “There are millions of people who would take actions against him if they had the possibility. In my case, it was just random.”
