<p>There is absolutely no place for racism and race related crime in sport or anywhere
in society. We have seen some worrying instances of discriminatory behaviour recently,
most notably in football. Following the summit I chaired with football leaders on
25th February 2019, Government is working with key groups to deliver clear, tangible
actions to tackle racism at all levels of football. The intention is to announce these
interventions, in partnership with football, later in the year.</p><p>It is vital
that the atmosphere and environment in which sport and physical activity takes place
in our communities - be it grassroots or at the elite level - is safe, supportive
and free of discrimination. Sport clubs and fans must continue to embrace diversity
and tackle racism whenever they encounter it.</p>
