meanwhile, england defender tyrone mings has accused the home secretary of stoking the fire, accusing online abuse faced by footballers, because she had previously called taking the knee "gesture politics". no one wants to see racism, let's assume that is the case with everybody including, by the way, our home secretary who has been subject in her life to racism herself. nobody wants to see it and i think we all get behind each other to defeat it, not only in sport, but in society more broadly. inspired by england's overall performance at the euros, these young footballers in luton are hoping to follow in the footsteps of their role models, but they say the last 48 hours have been hard to bear. ijust knew when he missed, i knew he would get some backlash because of our race and that. i was at wembley when they missed so had to get out there quick. aspiring professional footballers who one day hope racism will finally be rooted out of the game they love. it's worrying, to be fair, because since we're not really seeing any changes, i'm an aspiring footballer myself so it's a thing where

one of the england squad, tyrone mings, accused the home secretary, priti patel, of fuelling the flamespeak out against spectators who booed the team for taking the knee to protest against racism before matches. does the noble minister agree with me that the deluge of racist abuse towards black players must not only be condemned and perpetrators brought to justice, but should not be fuelled in the first place by politicians, who, if we are honest, some of them in effect encourage fans to boo the national team, a brilliant team, that took a collective stand — taking the knee — against the very racism that the black players were subject to after sunday's defeat. surely the government can see that when senior politicians, like our prime minister and the secretary of state for home office make dog whistle comments and do not slap down racism, then the cabinet itself, the government itself has a problem. i don't accept what l the noble lady says. i've quoted twice now- but the prime minister has said, which has been crystal clear on this subject. - and the home secretary has also been clear
