Diversity's Ashley Banjo has taken to Instagram to address the vicious backlash over the BLM routine the dance troupe performed on Britain's Got Talent.

The anti-racism performance sparked 15,000 complaints, but father-of-two Ashley insisted the response was mostly positive and said he will never be anything but proud of the performance. "I just wanted to do a video to address some issues, it's been a crazy week and I have been a bit quiet on social been living life, trying not to get caught up in it all, but now I feel is the time to come out and say a few things," he began. "Firstly, I want to say thank you, for all the people who have supported what me and Diversity did with our performance, they have reached out.
