Recognise racism towards white people and Anglophobia as a hate crime.

Petition Details

We would like the government to recognise racism towards white people and Anglophobia as a hate crime.

Additional Information

Racism towards white people and Anglophobia has become increasingly popular and is seen as socially acceptable. When a white person reports the racist hate crime, the matter is not taken seriously by authorities or in the workplace. White people are not exempt from racist abuse. Racism and Anglophobia should not be socially acceptable.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

A crime can already be prosecuted as a hate crime if the offence has demonstrated hostility based on race or been motivated by hostility based on race.
