Politics and sport should be kept completely separate. By all means players can express a private view, but not while representing their club. Likewise those coppers who took the knee outside Downing Street ought to be disciplined. The police should never express a political view whilst on duty. They police by consent and must be completely politically impartial. | |

Taking a knee on 21:07 - Jun 6 with 1501 views | Saintsforeverj | Take a knee for what? ONE white police officer in America went to prison, rightly so for killing a black person. So let's protest against police brutality by one officer, by injuring horses, injuring innocent officers who arn't racist, in other countries to where it happened to get what? Perhaps football players can take a knee for their fellow black players like Mane to earn more and be given the same opportunity to play for a top club. | |

It has absolutely no impact or relevance to my life, a man killed by a very unhinged policeman 5000 miles away is of no interest or importance to me. All these protests over here are pathetic and those attending are just attention seeking twà ts. | |

I do notice that when young BLACK men kill young BLACK men in the very city you claim to live in, there aren't mass gatherings and the outpouring of grief shown for this individual from another country, oh and ironically no shouting from the rooftops that BLACK LIVES MATTER It's a complete load of bollocks. | |

Excusing or downplaying British racism with comparisons to the US is a bad habit with a long history. It began in 1807, with the abolition of the slave trade and picked up steam three decades later with the end of British slavery, twin events that marked the beginning of 200 years of moral posturing and historical amnesia. To have an attitude like yours just confirms there is a systemic problem that needs changing even more | | | |

Listen clearly petal, I dont have friends of various colour or ethnicity...I just have friends ....I dont feel I have to compartmentalise them..they are just friends You however want to label these ordinary human beings so you can highlight your faux support. You inadvertently are being more racist, and with your attitude and many others of your ilk will actually cause more racism. The sympathy and support for BLM is eroding rapidly in this country...and that is a problem that has been created by people like you. | |
