YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe Mayor of London said he supports the message of Black Lives Matter, however he is "extremely worried" about protests planned this weekend in central London.
"I'm asking anybody who is thinking about protesting in central London not to do so and to find other ways to make your views heard," Mr Khan said explaining he is concerned demonstrations to the further spread of Covid-19.
He said that US and Australia "have had confirmed cases where people on protests have caught the virus."
"I want you to ask yourself the question how you would feel if you returned home from a protest with the virus and gave it to an older relation," he said.
Mr Khan told LBC he also feared "far-right counter protests" could lead to "violence, vandalism or disorder" in the capital - this would divert attention from the important anti-racist message.
