No room for racism.
After the disgraceful racist comments, aimed at England players Bukayo Saka, Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford, which were posted overnight on social media, the Leader of Sheffield Council has responded this afternoon with a statement
Cllr Terry Fox said:
“We know racism exists in our country, and on our own doorstep here in Sheffield. We must work together, and send a message loud and clear – there is no room for racism in England, in Sheffield, or anywhere else.”
“This England team are heroes, both on and off the pitch. They have given this country the lift we absolutely needed.”
“From taking the knee, to wearing the Pride armband and campaigning for children to be able to eat during the school holidays, this group of lads are a different level. I’m just so proud of them, and of course our Three Lions from Sheffield, Kyle Walker, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Harry Maguire.”
