What will be noticed however is the fact that whites will be openly criticised, whereas the ethnic minorities will be sympathetically evaluated and measures taken.

Perhaps the best way to approach these discrepancies, is to state the reason why there are proportionately more ethnic minorities in jail than whites and why some black children are three times as likely to be excluded or suspended as white British ones?

Because as a white person I am getting rather fed up with all the blame being placed at our door, surely there are others that could be equally blamed?

Perhaps looking to apportion blame is not the most constructive approach?

But then, neither is taking the responsibility 'as a white person' so personally!
May takes her white voters for granted but she doesn't get many others and she needs them. So of course she's trying to attract the minority and ethnic vote.

So are all other party leaders (well, maybe not Ukip, I don't know yet.)
Ensuring society is playing fair is.... well.... fair enough. But one should consider what actually causes a disproportionate number of the different groups in society to be in the situations considered. There may be reasons other than one group being treated less well than another.
"Because as a white person I am getting rather fed up with all the blame being placed at our door, surely there are others that could be equally blamed?" What others would they be?
Exactly OG, for instance perhaps more ethnics dont own their house is because a large proportion of them live in London wheras the whites moved out years ago.

Too many variables not being considered whichis why is looks like another 'whites' bashng. I dont think May will ever learn that bashing her core voters is not a good idea. You would have thought after the last election disaster she would have a bit more common.
It's not all about white folk being treated better, "The figures show that poorer white children tend to do worse in tests at junior schools"
Would you not welcome research into why that is?

No, not in isolation.

As with my example above we need to have a deep analysis before any conclusions can be reached.
"perhaps more ethnics dont own their house is because a large proportion of them live in London wheras the whites moved out years ago. "

If white folk can own a house in London, why is it more likely that "ethnics" don't?

What proportion of "ethnics" live in London?
Well that is exactly my point CORBY. Without those answers debate is pointless.

However judging by news items the ethnic (none of whom see particularity hard done by) are banging on about how racist and non accepting the UK is. Of course the left wing media is lapping it up.

What absoute garbage that is.
Next it will be, if immigrants promise to vote Conservative they will be allowed into th UK.




It worked for Tony Blair!
Isn't that already Labour policy?

Yes but what Labour can't see is that when the immigrants increase further in numbers, they will form their own party and in time perhaps even rule this country of ours.
And perhaps you are talking through your hat.

Apart from the mathematics not working, immigrants tend to live in clusters. So they might eventually get 1 MP in say Leicester, but they wont get any in the 649 other constituencies.
ANOTHEOLDGIT, I thought the Muslims were meant to be taking control, not immigrants in general?

You posited:

How can you possibly know that, before the study has begun?
Question Author
Interesting to note that on both BBC and ITV's news, when 'randomly' stopping persons in the street for their comments on PM May's "War on race bias", not one white person was interviewed for their comments.
That may be because white people are not generally perceived as having to deal with race bias.

The survey is not specifically to do with just non white race bias.

But as always it seems it is once again going to be all about, "it's cos am black".
