Ringo Starr has spoken out about the wave of Black Lives Matter protests around the world, saying he is sending “peace, love and continuous support” to them.

The Beatles drummer referenced his bandmate Paul McCartney’s own message, which was shared yesterday (June 5), in his tweet.

“As my brother Paul said The Beatles always stood for equal rights&justice and I’ve never stopped working for peace&love ever since,” he wrote. “I send my peace love&continuous support to everyone marching & speaking up for justice & a better world.” See the post below.

He also called for justice for George Floyd’s family and “for all those who have died and suffered”. “Saying nothing is not an option,” he added.

The protests that are continuing across the US and around the world were sparked by the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Floyd was killed when a police officer kneeled on his neck for nearly nine-minutes and ignored the man’s pleas that he couldn’t breathe.
