A British woman who was wrongly tagged by US President Donald Trump on Twitter mistaking her for UK Prime Minister Theresa May, has sought an apology from the White House,&nbsp;</p>

<p>Theresa May Scrivener, a housewife, said she has been unable to leave her home.</p>

<p>Scrivener, who lives in the coastal town of Bognor in West Sussex, used her middle name when she set up her Twitter handle @TheresaMay in 2009.</p>

<p>Trump tagged that handle instead of the British Prime Minister&#39;s handle before deleting the message to send it to the correct handle: &quot;@Theresa_May don&#39;t focus on me, focus on the destructive Radical Islamic Terrorism that is taking place within the United Kingdom. We are doing just fine!&quot;.</p>

<p>Trump&#39;s tweet was a response to the British Prime Minister&#39;s rebuke that the US President was &quot;wrong&quot; to re-tweet controversial anti-Muslim videos posted by British far-right group Britain First.</p>

<p>&quot;It&#39;s amazing to think that the world&#39;s most powerful man managed to press the wrong button. I&#39;m just waiting for a call from the White House with an apology,&quot; said Scrivener, who has been bombarded by messages from contrite Americans apologising for their President.</p>

<p>&quot;I haven&#39;t been able to leave my house. I&#39;ve been bombarded and been contacted by press from around the world... I&#39;m just glad he was not contacting me to say he was going to war with North Korea,&quot; the 41-year-old said.</p>

<p>Scrivener, whose Twitter account has just six followers compared with Prime Minister May&#39;s 427,000, has said she has no plans of changing her social media account name.</p>

<p>&quot;He [Trump] needs to think before he tweets. We - Theresa May and I - are so different. Our profiles are completely different. She runs the country, I&#39;m a mum from Bognor,&quot; she said, refusing to be drawn any further into the controversy over the content of Us President&#39;s tweets.</p>

<p>Trump&#39;s re-tweet of three videos first posted by Jayda Fransen, the deputy leader of Britain First, has created a major uproar in the UK.</p>

<p>Several MPs have demanded that a state visit invitation, extended to the US President on behalf of Queen Elizabeth II, be withdrawn in protest.&nbsp;</p>
