BBC News published this video item, entitled “Asian hate crime in UK increases during pandemic – BBC News” – below is their description.
“This has exploded since the beginning of the virus.”
As footballers boycott social media over hate crimes, the abuse directed at Spurs star Son Heung-Min has focused attention on racism suffered by people of Asian background.
