Racism in English football
The British government will hold a special summit in Downing Street on racism in football.The intervention of the Prime Minister on this subject after a series of highlights of this range. More in the report of MAT TREWERN:
When Liverpool's Luis Suarez refused to shake hands with Manchester United's Patrice Evra, theissue of racism in football was back on the front pages. Suarez had just returned from an eight match ban for racially abusing Evra.
Combined with the allegations of racism faced by the former England captain John Terry, it's feared the problem is starting to harm the image of the game in England.
The Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt told the BBC that football should not be complacent whentackling racism. And he confirmed that the Prime Minister will hold talks later this month with football authorities and player representatives.
Do you think that sport can play a role in addressing the problem of racism? Do you think that sports helped change some behaviors in the stadiums and in improving relations between the different races? Or you can see that sport has not only led to more tensions and conflicts?
