Social media platforms should have more rigorous registration so people can be held accountable for what they post - and users must be banned for life for racism.
That's the call from groups in Suffolk in the wake of racist attacks on young England players Marcus Rashford, Bukayo Saka and Jadon Sancho after Sunday's Euro 2020 final.
Social media platforms, Facebook and Twitter, have condemned the racist abuse, but Suffolk organisations say more needs to be done.
Phanuel Mutumburi, business and operations director at the Ipswich and Suffolk Council for Racial Equality (ISCRE), says that social media users should be “vetted”, and the registration process should be much more rigorous.
