British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Wednesday Black lives matter, and he supported the right to protest, in a lawful and socially-distanced way, after the killing by police of Floyd in the US stirred widespread anger.
"Of course, Black lives matter and I totally understand the anger, the grief that is felt not just in America but around the world and in our country as well," he told Parliament.
"I also support, as I've said, the right to protest. The only point I would make ... is that any protest should be carried out lawfully and in this country protests should be carried out in accordance with our rules on social distancing."
