Boris Johnson today made clear he would not 'take the knee' with Black Lives Matter protesters - insisting people should not be 'bullied' into making 'gestures'.

The PM said he was focused on the 'substance' of changing social attitudes and improving opportunities for ethnic minorities.

The comments, in a phone-in on LBC radio, came after Dominic Raab said last month that he would not personally 'take the knee' - a demonstration of support that has swept the world since the death of George Floyd in the US.
