British PM Boris Johnson wants ECB to reconsider Ollie Robinson suspension for racist tweets

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s spokesperson on Monday said the PM is “supportive” of the culture secretary’s view that England and Wales Cricket Board should reconsider the suspension of pacer Ollie Robinson for posting racist and ****ist tweets back in 2012.

Oliver Dowden, the UK government’s secretary for culture, sports, digital and media, said the ECB has gone “over the top” in its punishment of Robinson.
