The organiser of a protest that led to racist violence in Hull has accepted that describing small boat migrants as "an influx of illegal invaders" was not "the best choice of words".
However, he claimed his demonstration was hijacked and denied being racist.
In a dialog with a worshipper from a mosque that was attacked, John Francis apologised for what occurred.
Amanj Jamil, a member of Hull’s Kurdish group, agreed to fulfill Mr Francis on the invitation of Sky News.
Mr Jamil has lived and labored in Hull for twenty-four years since arriving as an asylum seeker from Iraq.
He was inside a mosque when a violent mob attacked it, throwing objects together with stones on the constructing, throughout a riot on 3 August.
