the designated adult who has the task of fixing a war torn economy, counting the cost on al jazeera, the u. k. prime minister has promised to ban from stadiums. people who abuse football is on line. that's after 3 blocking the phase where racially target is after their last at the euro. final, why is the abuse happening and what can be done to stop it? this is inside story. ah, ah, ah. hello and welcome to the program. i'm fully back people. last sunday's euro championship final was meant to be a unifying moment for england to reach that stage for the 1st time in 55 years. instead, 3 blank players who helped achieve that accomplishment face a barrage of racial abuse from fans on line after missing penalties. u k prime

minister boys johnson has stretched back those to racially abuse. football is from stadiums or up to 10 years. he's also threatening to fine tech companies if they failed to prevents race is content appearing on their platforms. we're bringing our guests in just a moment for us this report from 19 baba the statement of solidarity protested that the mural of england football marcus rush. but in manchester, which was the fate stuff to sunday euros, final rush. it's well known for a successful campaign for more free school meals during the pandemic. he and 2 other young black players received online racial abuse after failing to school penalties against italy. that was at the heart of wednesdays, prime minister questions, the labor opposition accusing the government of using anti racism as a political football. the government has been trying to spoke a cultural and i realized that on the wrong side. i hope that nobody's noted.

why would a concert p both that he's not watching his own team more else with another concert than say that marcus rushed spend too much time playing politics when he's actually trying to feed children that the government waived or is, johnson said he utterly condemned the abuse and would amend football binding orders that normally use to bar individuals to take part in. for example, races, chancing all hooliganism from attending matches now they'll cover online racism. while johnson put the tech joints on notice. i made it absolutely clear to them that we will legislate to address this problem. is the speaker in the online home? no, unless they get, unless they get hate and racism of the classrooms, they will, they find a my think to 10 percent of their global revenue. johnson refused to say whether he was wrong, not to condemn support, as he booed the england team before the tournament for taking the ne,

an anti discrimination gesture. previously, he defended the fans right to do so. and he's home. secretary went further at the start of the euros, criticizing the team, taking the knee. god to support people, participate in that type of gesture, gesture, politics, this ethnic sense. so when patel tweeted her disgust at the racist abuse self to the final england play a tyra mingo was furious writing, you don't get to stoke the fire at the beginning of the tournaments by labeling our anti racism messages, gesture, politics, and then pretend to be disgusted. when the very thing we campaigning against happens now some conservative politicians say the government's getting it's messaging wrong and needs to reflect on how that impacts real life racism. now this man raheem sterling is another england player who's been on the receiving end of racism. not just on line, but at times from popular newspapers as well. he was included in the team of the toner, meant a selection of the best performers at the euros. his outstanding contribution and

england making the final, may have increased public support for the teams. anti racism tactics, but the real breakthrough could be when black players are listen to whatever they do or don't achieve on the pitch. nadeem bob al jazeera london in the home town of strike. and marcus rochefort, one of the prayers racially targeted after sundays last finds responded with messages of support and family diversity. after his meal was vandalized him, some of what they had to say make race kit. i'm a local girl, i think has to go the way the government, black people. it's like, it's literally an opening for them to be in our, in bio black people. look michael and i believe in everyone in the corner. i want to be chairman again. so i think support unable to go to the final most important part for the local community. and

also the of the football is i don't think it should be happening in the long, long enough. the last spring in august for today's inside story in new castle clock carlisle, a former premier league play and co chair of the players advisory board kick it out in london. i need to buy yomi, a sports journalist and the co founder and host of gold diggers. podcast and also in new castle paul cans, deputy chief executive of the show, racism the red con you case launches on, ty, racism, educational charity, a warm welcome to your thank you so much for being on inside story clock. let me start with you. a new castle, what do you make of time? mister johnston, condemnation of racism, and his promise to ban online races. football fans, does it say send

a strong enough signal and well, thank you for inviting me to contribute festival. and does it send a strong enough signal? thing about the actions of our politicians? is it that can be so contradictory to, to take one stands, 3 weeks earlier and take a different stance. now a's is something that perpetuates the ambiguity that i think currently exists within society in england, especially around how seriously we address issues and instances of racism and racist racial discrimination. so those went to that april 4th in the past couple of days. they are exactly the tone that is necessary when you're trying to take a top down 0 tolerance approach against racism.

bought a tome that has to be continued throughout the rest of the year when it is not her sensational headline in the news and the focus of attention and your thoughts. how deep is this issue of racism in english football? i imagine of course, this is not new, but it's being talked about a lot more precisely because of social media. yeah. and it should have taken social media full. you know, the prime is that i'm the governing bodies to understand that this racism is an actual issue of taking a thought. just like you said a couple weeks ago saying that, you know, there's no way for them in the country and taking the knee was a political jester. i was a priest tell saying things like these has, has had a detrimental effect to society at this moment in time. there's so much ambiguity

surrounding scientific race them and what is accepted, what is not accepted that we are struggling in the as a society to understand that basis. i mean his cell should not be allowed on social media warren go life as well. so i think we are far away from becoming a country where we can accept that racism is a huge problem, but we are definitely making steps towards the poll. your thoughts, the prime minister says something very interesting. he said racism is deeply rooted in english society. do you agree with him? yes, absolutely. the question you asked was, well, what is the level of racism or what's the problem? the ratios of the football, the problem of racism within football will always mirror the problem of racism with a society we've. we live in a deeply divided society and certain instances and things that have happened of, of an older people seem to feel stronger that they can file the particular racist

views and beliefs. and let me restart him to see racism creek back in football at all levels. including the very, very highest level of the game machine races races and with a crowd of premier late games. and that was sadly, was he in england play as being racially abused online after after the biggest game that this probably taken place this year? clark talk to us about your own experience. if you can. what has been your most harrowing experience as a footballer? what, what impact does this braces abuse have on players? and he has a very sizable and direct impact on plays. and because it is a personal affront to you, and it's a personal affront that questions your validity to belong in society. let alone in that industry. you know, i was born in england,

i was born in preston. i represented my town, my district, my county, i'm my country. yet i have to face a portion, a small, but vocal portion of society that, that prides itself on being tolerant of me. you know, we, we talk about the power of words and it goes way beyond semantics when my whole nation prides itself on the fact that it's a tolerant society and it tolerates my presence in my home community. well, that is not acceptable. so, you know, when you talk about individual harrowing incidence, you know, they're not anywhere near as destructive as the micro aggressions that are face on a daily basis. when i walk around in my own community. and i see my next door neighbor pull her hand by closer to when i'm at the train station and i see

a family move further along the platform when i'm stopped at night and the police officer says you're driving a very nice call late at night. you know, these, the strip away at my call identity as a human being and make me constantly question whether i belong in my own community . that's not right. so it's, it's happening not just in football, but in society every day from what you tell us just just coming back to the play as in football clock. what are the plays being abused for most of the time? of course we saw the incident after the euro final, is it for making a mistake like missing a penalty, or is it for the color biscuit skin for it? i think that's the type of question that takes us away from this core issue. that's like asking someone who's attacked in the street. what were you doing before you were up to my question that a lot of people ask if the question i'm asking it because a lot of people,

unfortunately, it's a type of question that a lot of people are still asking. but that was a victim facing question. you know that that's totally inappropriate in the circumstance, i would bring us to the dean's closing line. and in the intro where, when we can state that we've made progress when a person's performance in their field is totally unrelated to how they are accepted with, with, with regard to their protective characteristics. it's really relevant, father, and i agree, but i'm asking it again because unfortunately that's, that's a rhetoric that you will hear from majority of people, not just in england, but in france where i am from l y. the places as well. again, it's a full dimensional position that we have the question we have to turn the question around to those people are asking the question, say,

do i have to justify my experience and my right to be in a community only by excelling in certain areas. and they fight for less than those standards. do i suddenly become unacceptable or superhuman? no, that's not the that's not the state of play that, that we believe society should operate from right any to let me bringing on this and that clock made an important point. talking about the fact that this is a small but vocal very vocal portion of people who are what is encouraging this type of behavior. bessy, i totally disagree with the law, but i will agree with people. i think they, she was a much larger than we actually believe it says, because we take a look at the actual special society. and we actually see a large percentage of society who both again, you know,

things to help black people in that right. respective positions and things to help them grow things to help them. you know, pass a few, few disgrace to them and say that this is being such as just politics. what them pretty patel did mention when it comes to the field there. i'm not too sure there's nothing i should be feeling there at this stage where in a society bath we pride ourselves, bessie, other non denali pride, ourselves for our diversity, as well as can be viewed. and all of this has to come from right at the top, which is where i point, you know, kind of the blame tools, the government, the government should be camping down one racial issues wondering what is going on . i want to come down on this, i will begin to take this issue a lot more of the issues. the issue continues because the government allows it to continue because there's not enough, you know, there's not enough monitor and punishment that there's toward being racially abuse . okay. we'll talk in a moment about what punishment and what actions should be taken,

but i want to ask paul about the, the, you know, the taking the ne gesture. i mean, when you k, football resumed in june 2020, after the, the coven haters pay is adopted this anti racism a gesture taking the ne, in response to the killing of george for in the us, of course, has anything changed at all as a result of that gesture, and i'm not talking about the euro final. do you think it's made a difference at all? even if a small one i think on the 2nd section of society, i think the title in the is a powerful gesture. i think it's helped to get the message home to a number of people throughout the u. k. y and a place that they really are clearly not enough people. and clearly there's been miscommunication, a misinformation around the taking of the ne gesture, i think the beginning of the tone, the correct south gate on the new plays have been very, very clear about why they've taken an

e. that it is an anti racism gesture or political gesture. and if anything, it's actually a human rights gesture. so anybody who has abused players or boot players for further taking than the as, as an anti races, ingestion need to take a long, hard look at themselves and realizing that their bu and alex racism and that they're building a human rights issue. and if not just in the u. k, there's been many other incidents of racial abuse on and off the pitch in italy. several blank players have complained of racist abuse from fans, including mario bello tele, who had bananas thrown at him while playing bulgaria. national football team was ordered to play behind closed doors after fans races behavior during a year or 2020 quantify against england. in 2019 and fif, i charged russia the whole of the last world cup in 2018 with fine races, and after black french players were targeted. let's talk about the solutions now.

what, what needs to happen? social media companies including facebook, instagram, twitter, as say they're committed of course to tackling all forms of online abuse. and they point out that they've invested in systems and processes that result in better monitoring and detection. but obviously this hasn't been entirely effective. what else needs to happen to change this type of behavior? well, i go back to what i need to said, not totally agree with. there are 3 fundamental parts of when an incident of racism occurs that have to be followed through. one is the reporting of the incident. what we find is that the vast majority of incidence aren't reported because there is no trust within any system that it is capable to deal effectively with the incident. so having one, the vehicle to report to everyone knows that's where you report incidence racial abuse takes a 2nd. is an investigative process that is independent of the best stakeholders on

the store for rent. they can place all the evidence around the incident. and then thirdly, it's brought to a judicial conclusion so that there are repercussions in law for those who, who commit these offenses and the difficulty is that a, the u. k. these are offensive, these are criminal offenses under many different acts, but they're not punished. no, they're not. and why is babylon indications that race relations at the communications? and this is why there is no face in the system to deal with this. now, people's attention turned to the platforms, the facebook, twitter, et cetera. and they all taken these posts down that doesn't solve the problem. all that does is silence the people who are the source of the problem. you know, if i was to say to the police, i know who did a crime, but i'm not telling you

a bit obstructing justice, right? if i actually told the world the i know who did the crime, but i'm not telling you i be perverted in the course of justice. and this is where i believe social media platforms need to step in. when there is an investigation, they need to provide any and all the evidence that they have. and that's the, that needs to be addressed in a new law in the online home, spill annisa, your thoughts? what needs to happen for real change to actually happen for people to pocket and to be perhaps affected? yeah, i am titanium voted what clark said on top of that, i think he has come on. he has said that he will, you know, the results of finding the social media companies, i think will a 10 percent of their global revenue for me beat that kind of punishment is not good enough. taking 10 percent of a social media, social media, global revenue is nothing to them. you know,

we need to hold people accountable. we need to find ways to get these people who are involved in the racial abuse online. i need to find a way to hold them accountable for their own actions and night. clark said this is a criminal problem. this all of these i'm racist. abuse should be take over to be there should be taken to court and they should be criminal trial because this is against the law. i myself as a school shanice i have been subject to who ration will be just for reporting things such as, you know, in england news in the year of it by reporting that i am subject to races, abuse. and all of this has been very frustrating, especially for people of color, is to come very frustrating because we cannot time to social media. and like i said about reporting, even if we reported what will social media do about it? there's no faith in social media. there's no faith in the government and both the government social media needs to come together and find a way to criminally criminally,

charged these abuses online. and that's the only way we can find a solution for all of the way that we use the stuff online. because if we keep standing here, i'm trying to find the social media company, nothing is going to get done. so the issue, the punishment shouldn't be tree. i should definitely bring in a criminal justice poll. there are tons of campaigns out there right now. stop on line hates show racism, the red car stand up to racism to name just a few. anita said no faith in social media right now. no faith in the government. who do you think is ultimately responsible for making sure change happens? i think like i said, it's just a government and social media companies to come together. maybe with anti racism campaign is maybe with premier lee cafe and other key bodies and key plays to take it unified and united approach to where the out the racism campaigns come in today

is the medium of but the cation, you said, how are we going to solve this problem, actual racism, the red color locating i believe the same is not education will always be the key to tackling racism. myself and clark of subtle a number of annals educating young people over many years about these issues. and that is the only way we will effectively tackle ventures in the long term time clock. i'll give you the last word. we've talked about the actions that social media companies and the government should be taking, but how best we support players who have been racially abused. i'm delighted he broke it round to this point because you know, because the plays are seemingly in a fortunate position. our attention seems to turn away from them when they are the victims in this situation. and as a player's board, we are directly reaching out to those players so that they know in no uncertain terms that they are being supported as human beings. and you know,

we have the victim support unit with the u. k. place for the way where civilians contend to. but i think in this situation where it is and you know, almost a segregated portion of society, the industry of football is very close to bobo. i think within we need to identify the individuals and support them on an individual basis, according to their needs and respective politics and rhetoric that go into both. all right, thank you so very much for a very interesting and insightful discussion. can't carlisle anita by yomi and paul can thank you so much for being with us on the inside story. and thank you for watching. you can always watch his program again any time by visiting our website al jazeera dot com. and for further discussion, go to our facebook page at facebook dot com, forward slash adrian inside story, and of course you can join the conversation on twitter. handle is
