London’s newly elected mayor — the city’s first Muslim mayor — accused his rivals of taking a page from presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s playbook in their campaigns against him.

Throughout the mayoral race, Khan’s Conservative opponents tried to paint him as a radical with ties to extremists.
