2:09Now PlayingThere are concerns that the UK will see another spike in hate crime after Brexit Day, according to Sadiq Khan.
Britain will leave the European Union on 31st January after Boris Johnson's withdrawal bill was voted through parliament last week.
In the aftermath of the EU referendum, hate crime rocketed. One of the most memorable calls to LBC was from an emotional German woman who said she was scared after a series of xenophobic attacks.
Speaking to LBC, the Mayor of London admitted he was worried by what would happen after we leave the EU.
Asked if he could see a rise in hate crime, he said: "It's always a concern. The empirical evidence shows after the referendum on 23rd June 2016, there was a massive spike in hate crime.
"There is the potential, of course there is."
