Over 200 people have complained to Ofcom about a Loose Women programme from last week. The complaints, sent to the broadcasting regulator, centre around a debate between Charlene White and Janet Street-Porter.
The Mirror reports that the pair were discussing racism that some Ukrainian refugees have experienced at borders across Europe. The episode aired on March 1. Discussing what was happening in Ukraine, White explained: "But there is one thing that has really shone a light on where I'm concerned, that has really stuck out to me, is that in the midst of all of this, the midst of people trying to flee from their homes, the midst of them trying to dodge bullets and bombs, they still have time for racism.
"Because you've got thousands of Black, Asian, Syrian, Arab students and workers who have also been trying to get out of Ukraine and have been prevented from doing so due to the incessant racism that they have experienced. They've not been allowed to go through the border into Poland from example, where they've been pushed back."
