Earlier, British Prime Minister David Cameron criticized Turmps remarks calling themdivisive.
A poll conducted by YouGov suggested that the majority of Brits are opposed to Trumps anti-Muslim policy.
Trump was also criticized by Scotland Yard.We would not normally dignify such comments with a response, however on this occasion we think its important to state to Londoners that Mr Trump could not be more wrong, a statement released by Scotland Yard said.
This comes asFinance Minister George Osborne told lawmakers that Trump's views were "nonsense," but said it would be wrong to "ban presidential candidates."
Answering questions in the House of Commons, Osborne said "the best way to confront the views of someone like Donald Trump is to engage in a robust democratic argument with him about why he is profoundly wrong."
Trumps remarks were made after a mass shooting at a Californian care home, carried out by a couple who the FBI say had been radicalized.
Even after a global backlash, Trump defended his comments, saying they were no worse than the actions of former President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who imprisoned over 110,000 people in government camps after the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor in 1941.
