Brexit issues: UN envoy condemns ‘Growing racism’

While UK laws and politicians make distinctions between illegal immigrants and people in the UK lawfully, it doesn’t follow that the public will see the difference

A UN envoy has condemned what she says is a growing culture of racism in the UK since the Brexit vote.

Tendayi Achiume has called on London to repeal some of its immigration laws.

She says they have led to some immigrants and migrants being wrongly targeted.
