Boris Johnson prompted a surge in racist and sexist attacks. He has to go
Racist and sexist: Boris Johnson.
Evidence from the monitoring group Tell Mama shows that Boris Johnson is a sexist and a racist who promotes sectarian violence against people of other religions.
This is the man who is trying to take the UK out of the European Union in such a way that he will be able to strip rights from particular sections of society and persecute as he pleases.
We know he is capable of it because we have witnessed the persecution of the sick and disabled, with thousands of people having their benefits withdrawn for no good reason, driving them to poverty and death.
Who knows what Dictator Johnson would do to other minority groups, given the chance?
He has to go. The sooner, the better.
Hopefully events in Westminster over the next few days will eject him.
If not, then we must find ways to push him out.
Boris Johnson’s comments on women wearing the veil led to a surge in anti-Muslim attacks and incidents of abuse, the monitoring group Tell Mama has said.
In its annual report, the group said [a] significant spike occurred in August [2018] after Johnson wrote a column referring to veiled Muslim women as “letterboxes” and “bank robbers”.
In the week following that article, Tell Mama said anti-Muslim incidents increased by 375% – from eight incidents the previous week, to 38 in the following.
Of the 38 anti-Muslim hate incidents, 22 were directed at Muslim women who wore the niqab, or face veil.
The group recorded a total of 57 incidents in the three weeks following the publication of the column by the former foreign secretary and current prime minister, 32 of which were directed at Muslim women. It said that between 5 and 29 August, 42% of the street-based incidents reported to Tell Mama directly referenced Johnson and the language used in his column.

Is he anti semitic ?
His comments were completely irresponsible and inappropriate for a man in his position. Just like Trump.
You mean the, tell mama t**t who was caught making up Incidences of hate crime? That tell mama? He was also done for fraud.
This is an organisation, not a single person, as I understand it.
He set it up and runs it. It should be shut down.
