PM to urge social media firms to take tougher action over online racism
July 14, 2021
LONDON: Boris Johnson will urge social media firms to take tougher action over racism after the abuse of England football players, which he described as being “from the dark spaces of the internet”.
The Prime Minister was preparing to hold talks about online abuse with companies including Facebook, Twitter and Instagram in No 10 later on Tuesday, in the wake of the attacks after the team’s loss in the Euro 2020 final.
Downing Street said he will “reiterate the urgent need for action” in the meeting but also had to issue a defence of Johnson and Priti Patel over their earlier responses.
