LONDON: British Prime Minister Boris Johnson promised Wednesday to strengthen steps towards racist abuse of soccer players, which prohibited fans if they were found guilty of such a violation and tortured social media because he failed to remove it.
Johnson and the Minister of Home Affairs, Priti Patel, have burned several of their previous comments because three black soccer players were targeted online racist abuse after England’s defeat in the Euro 2020 final on Sunday.
Prime Minister, who again said he condemned the racist abuse of the players and defended Patel by saying he also faced such abuse, said his government was determined to overcome this problem, recognizing that racism was a problem in the UK.
“I think that racism is a problem in the UK, and I believe it needs to be handled, and needs to be labeled in several ways that I describe this morning,” Johnson told Parliament, where he was often drowned by the shouts of opposition politicians.
Previously, Johnson had described the parliament of the steps he took to try to overcome online harassment after hosting the heads of social media companies at his street residence on Tuesday.
“What we did today took practical steps to ensure that the regime for the order of football runaway was changed so if you were guilty of racist abuse of soccer players then you would not go to the match, no, no, no, exceptions and no reason, “He said.
“Last night I met a representative from Facebook, from Twitter, from Tiktok, from Instagram and I made it really clear to them that we would repeat this problem in harming bills online and unless they got their hatred and racism platform, they would face A fine of 10% of their global income.
“The previous government has determined its intention to pass a new law that gave her strength for good social media firms.
