May on Trump:
“I see no equivalence between those who propound fascist views and those who oppose them. I think it is important for all those in positions of responsibility to condemn far right views wherever we hear them.”
Other Tory MPs and ministers have been somewhat more direct:
Neo-Nazis: bad
Anti-Nazis: good
I learned that as a child.

The ‘leader of the free world’ loses moral authority when he cannot call fascism by its name.

Losing moral authority? Never had it. Appalling individual; his success continues to be a tragedy for the US. https://t.co/ligG6RQ7W4

The President of the United States has just turned his face to the world to defend Nazis, fascists and racists. For shame.
