Report

When Liverpool's Luis Suarez refused to shake hands with Manchester United's Patrice Evra, the issue of racism in football was back on the front pages. Suarez had just returned from an eight match ban for racially abusing Evra.

Combined with the allegations of racism faced by the former England captain John Terry, it's feared the problem is starting to harm the image of the game in England.

The Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt told the BBC that football should not be complacent² when tackling racism. And he confirmed that the Prime Minister will hold talks later this month with football authorities and player representatives.
