Britain's interior minister said on Monday it was appalling to see political violence taking place and she was glad to see Donald Trump was safe following what the FBI called an apparent assassination attempt on the former U.S. president.

"It's appalling to see political violence taking place. Violence should have no place in any political campaign," Yvette Cooper told Sky News.

"We're all glad that the former president is safe, and that this attempt, whatever it was that happened, was not successful."
