Not some random line a politician uttered 13 years ago
Since when has Trevor been a politician?
Mark Trevor Phillips OBE ARCS FIC is a British writer, broadcaster and former politician.29 May, 2018 at 12:25 pm #1096700If the colour of skin is irrelvant Dan then why have you just made a song and dance about colour of skin in the UK prison population?
because I don’t believe that black people are inherently evil or by skin tone more likely to commit crime but the skin tone often belies a culture they come from which has different values regarding immigration from certain countries.

That doesn’t explain the gun epidemic in Manchester in the 90s and 00s, nor does it explain the knife culture in Glasgow, to name two examples. I could go on, eg the drugs wars in the 80s and early 90s was driven by “white” criminality.

It’s hardly some random line, it’s quite a profound statement made by the Chairman of the Equality and Rights comission, covering a very sensitive area of British society.
More importantly and relevantly, it seems Mr Phillips’ statements have proved to be true.
29 May, 2018 at 12:31 pm #1096704It is cearly possible to understand hence the Lammy review of which I have just posted the relevant links
Does Lammy in the report refer to an “underclass of black youth” ?

Yes and you will quote and requote a single line a politician made 13 years ago and disregard full indepth research released last year, just like you did when you spam posted your silly graph recently.

Are you saying then that crime statistics showing higher percentages of crimes committed by blacks is just made up for the hell of it? I’m not sure what relevance using examples of white crime has when disputing facts on why per head of population, the black community overly represent the criminal conviction spectrum.
I’ve already said, I don’t think skin colour has any relevance other than the socio-economic factors mentioned but the facts are what they are.

Exactly what don’t you understand about how skin colour dictates what custodial sentence you recieve etc? Or i’ll simplify it, if your black your more likely to be sent to prison, because your black and not because of the crime you commited.

I think you’re jumping the gun a little bit there. Why do you assume I haven’t read it ten times over? Why do you think I am disregarding it? Simply because I don’t mention it?
Why do you assume if you know about it and it’s implications that I don’t?
