He also proposed that the steps of the BAME group may account for a boost in Covid-19 circumstances in certain locations of England.

"The BAME neighborhood, what the f*** does that mean?", he went on asking.

Following his comments, YouTube viewers labelled the Generation Video game host as 'racist'.
