Racism is ingrained within the psyche of the British just like Fish n Chips. The racists just cannot help themselves !

Given their evident and rigorous crackdown on Islamophobia in their own party, this'll be a piece of cake! Oh, wait.....

And the newspapers can get back to writing about Rashford‘s and Sterling’s houses, cars and tattoos

Breaking news: anyone can set up a website, and (whisper it...) they don't have to be in the UK.

Hopefully all black sportspeople, not just footballers. And hopefully the crackdown will be for online haters as well as those attending events. It's shameful to observe, and I hate to think what it must be like to be on the receiving end F1 F1

They're going to try to regulate Silicon Valley? This is going to be fun.

Talk about an impossible task. Ok, we are going to eliminate trolls on social media are we? Let's also have zero murders, zero burglaries, zero cancer. This is a desperate attempt to class Britain as racist. They can't find anything substantial but will always be nutters online

while scapegoating refugees spot the fucking problem. get your own ship in order Conservatives and srop promoting nationalist flag waving bullshit

All talk no action

How about cracking down on all racism? Of course not, there are too many racists in Government and thousands more are Conservatives.

Violence against people because you just don't like what they say is never ok.

The Tories could make a start by kicking out all the racists who have joined their party in the last few years.

Good.
