Just watched the footage Zouma attacking his cat 😔😡 Disgusting behaviour. Imagine what we haven’t seen? People who treat animals that way deserve serious consequences… An apology and a slap on the wrist is not enough

Just for the record:
1. Racism exists at every level of our society. This needs to be consistently highlighted so it can eventually be eradicated.
2. It is never ok to just ‘not believe’ someone who says they are struggling with mental health issues.

I disagree completely. That's like saying if I walk into a party and I get abuse then I should leave the room. Technically this is a good option - But everyone has the right to be on social media without feeling abused or like they shouldn't be there.
