Same particular problem that Catholic Priests have/had with their attitudes to young boys?

Absolutely, but since the measures put in place after the Stephen Lawrence enquiry, the police are reluctant to do anything that could be construed as racism. The same goes for the staff of local authorities, but that's more to do with ultra PC management.

Thankfully, these issues have now been recognised and measures are to be put in place to prevent a repetition (unless it was just lip service for the cameras).

The police should enforce, not ignore the law. The issue was nothing whatsoever to do with racism.

I thought everyone was supposed to be equal under the law? The 'establishment elite' appears to have done much in recent years to erode that principle. Unless this is corrected soon, this will end up with a backlash by the majority who believe that the law is not protecting them.

Totally agree. Racial equality should not mean that Pakistanis get a free pass to break the law, as has clearly been the case due to public employees being too afraid to challenge and follow up complaints about people of colour.

Do not like it when the black Americans call their selves African Americans (just call your selves American).
