On the tenth anniversary of the murder of black teenager Stephen Lawrence, the head of the Metropolitan police's anti-racism unit today said she believed the Met was still "institutionally racist"

Commander Cressida Dick, in charge of the Met's diversity directorate, said in an interview with the Independent: "I would say there is not an institution out there that could say, 'We are not racist'."

She conceded that it was possible to be "more sensitive than we are, and reduce it further", but claimed that the Met had put more resources into fighting racism and had improved its record on the issue more significantly than many other organisations.

From your answers I'm guessing you have no idea what it is set up for. Is it just a 'club' for black police to belong to? No, it is "Aiming to improve the working environment for police personnel of African, African-Caribbean or Asian origin working in London."

don't know where that quote comes from Russ but this is their
mission
It's for the whole country not just London and note the bit about improving the work enviroment for black people ,why not all people ?
