Vunipola, 27, stood before Saracens' defeat by Bristol on Saturday, while the majority of his team-mates kneeled. "Though I am a person of colour, I'm still more a person of Jesus," he told The Good, The Bad and The Rugby. "What I saw in terms of that movement was not aligned with what I believe in," added the England number eight. Claims that arson attacks on churches were connected to protests in the US have been investigated by police and are unproven. Premiership teams marked the return of top-flight rugby for the first time since the death of American George Floyd in police custody in May with a variety of displays of support for anti-racism. Harlequins, Leicester and Wasps knelt in a gesture that has become synonymous with the anti-racism cause and worldwide protests that followed Floyd's death.
Load of ****e. Sooner they get this bollocks off our screens the better. Plus far too much ambiguity between BLM the organisation, and BLM in terms of just being an anti racist stance. I'm anti racist but in no way shape or form would I ever give money or support the BLM organisation values. They're a joke and their vision is a disgrace.
