Is Racism a disease that needs to be purged from society before football, or does football need to lead the way in getting rid of prejudice first?Are politicians like Boris Johnson & Priti Patel using the England team to improve their Public image?In this episode of The Straight Shootin' View SSLJA discusses politicians jumping on the England bandwagon after the Euro 2020 Semi-Final victory and politicians using England's run to the final to deflect from their own damaged PR during the Covid-19 pandemic.SSLJA looks at the horrific Racist abuse suffered by England's black players on social media (specifically Sancho, Rashford and 19 year old Bukayo Saka), after missing penalties in the Euro 2020 final and looks at the hypocrisy of certain politicians condemning the abusers, whilst basically encouraging the racial tensions with their political decisions and actions.For more information about Pitch Talk visit: Our Official Website - http://www.pitch-talk.comhttp://Facebook.com/pitchtalk (Become a fan & member of our Facebook group)http://Twitter.com/pitchtalk @pitchtalkhttps://www.instagram.com/pitchtalk/http://Youtube.com/pitchtalk Find & Subscribe to our audio - Add us to your favourite podcast app via RSS Feed - https://pitchtalk.podomatic.com/rss2.xmlPodomatic - https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/pitchtalkPodbean - https://pitchtalk.podbean.com/Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/pitch-talk-podcast/id445883703Google Podcasts - https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkLnBvZGJlYW4uY29tL3BpdGNodGFsay9mZWVkLnhtbASpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/0y9lR6WJaNLyAr7diAHhqh#upsellAmazon Music - https://music.amazon.co.uk/podcasts/ee0280cc-f15b-49bb-a3e2-b688e0dd49d5/Pitch-Talk-Podcast?Vurbl - https://vurbl.com/station/pitch-talk-podcast/Mixcloud Archive (Incl.
