The football team was made up of social workers, probation officers and their clients. The clients provided the skill, speed and youth, the social workers the organisational skills, transport and reliability, the probation officers the sharp elbows. The social work lecture who ran the team would occasionally organise a team bonding pub crawl. Usually this went off without incident other than... Gweld mwy

null Police stop and search figures proof of racism?

Is it fair to site the Police stop and search figures as proof of racism? Police forces are up to 28 times more likely to use stop and search powers against black people that white people. Is this as some claim proof of racism amongst front line police officers?  The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) has examined the statistics on the use of stop and search and found that...
