A former police officer has admitted sharing racist memes on WhatsApp mocking the death of George Floyd. James Watts, a probationary officer with the West Mercia force at the time, posted them in a group that included colleagues at a Warwickshire prison. The 31-year-old who admitted 10 counts on Friday was warned by Birmingham magistrates he could face jail. Watts accepted in police interviews that the messages were racist in nature, the court heard. Will racism ever end??
