New Delhi: Miles Routledge, a UK-based controversial Yotubver is back in the limelight after he sparked controversy for joking for making racist remarks against Indians and joking about throwing nuclear bombs on nations to "atomise" the "smallest infraction."

"When I become prime minister of England, I'll open the nuclear silos as an explicit warning to any foreign power that interferes with British interests and affairs. I'm not talking huge incidents, I'm itching to launch and atomize entire nations over the smallest infraction."

In a now-deleted post, he singled out India as one of those nations saying if he was prime minister of the UK, he would attack India "just for the sake of it. "Hell, I might just launch at India just for the sake of it!" he wrote.
