British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has apologized for his controversial statements about Islam. Boris regretted his earlier statements while negotiating for a report by the Conservative Party on complaints of discrimination, including Islamophobia. In response to the criticism of ways of dealing with discrimination and complaints, the ruling party has prepared an independent report from Professor Swaran Singh, former Human Rights Commission and Equality Commissioner.It mentions several examples involving Johnson. It also cites a newspaper article written by Johnson in 2018, in which he said that Muslim women going to the burqa look like a 'letterbox'. He also linked this hooly to bank robbers.The report quoted Johnson as saying, "I know what crimes have happened to me from what I have said, people expect that the person sitting on the post I am in should put things in the right way." But in journalism, you have to use language freely. I am sorry for the mistake that has been done. ''Johnson went on to say, "Will I use offensive words today from earlier articles?" I am a Prime Minister now, I will not do that. ”Singh has found in the report that the party has not been active enough to stop discrimination. The complaint process needs to be changed and the sanctions procedure against those who broke the rules is unclear. The report's conclusion states that anti-Muslim sentiment in the party is a problem.
