THE Prime Minister has spoken about how experiencing racism in his youth caused him a great deal of pain.
He said: "Of course I have experienced racism growing up, in particular, and of course I know it exists.
"It stings you in a way that very few other things do. It does hurt." Rishi Sunak spoke out as he responded to a long-awaited report by the Independent Commission for Equity in Cricket, which concluded that racism, sexism and elitism are widespread within the sport.
Yesterday he was watching the 2nd Test of The Ashes at Lord's Cricket Ground.
Appearing on BBC Radio 5, the Prime Minister said of the report: "It was, for people who love cricket, really hard to read and you were just sad."
