In 2beat OR in 2 Racism

Recent signers:
John Joseph and 19 others have signed recently.

The Issue

We, the undersigned, call on In2Beats FM to reverse the decision to reinstate a presenter previously dismissed for racist conduct.

As documented in Bedford Independent,  on  5th June 2020  (please see attached)] 

https://www.bedfordindependent.co.uk/local-radio-presenter-dj-steveo-sacked-after-racist-social-media-post/
The individual was 
'sacked after sharing what has been described as a “highly racist and inflammatory post” on social media'.
Reinstating them undermines public trust and conflicts with Ofcom’s Broadcasting Code on harm and offence.

We request that In2beats FM:
1. Remove the individual from on-air roles
2. Publish a clear anti-racism commitment and staff conduct policy
3. Meet with community representatives to rebuild trust
