Politics and Race

Adam Boulton and guests discuss politics and racism, two issues which have come together this week following the online abuse received by some of England's footballers after the defeat to Italy in the final of Euro 2020.This in the week the Runnymede Trust published a report suggesting racism is still 'systemic' in England and that people from ethnically diverse backgrounds still face inequalities across health, criminal justice, education, employment, immigration and politics.Joining Adam this week are the writer and founding member of Don't Divide Us Now Dr Rakib Ehsan, the Labour councillor Shaista Aziz who started a petition calling for racists to be banned from football matches in England, the journalist and author Yasmin Alibhai Brown and Sky's chief political correspondent Jon Craig.
