2 years ago the force were criticised for lack of diversity - http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-news...
Less than 9% of the force where from an ethnic minority background, compared to 30% of the general population.
30% of the brum pop is ethnic minority? wow that's almost 1 in 3Less than 9% of the force where from an ethnic minority background, compared to 30% of the general population.
I was quite surprised tbh.

The headline figure doesn’t bother me one way or the other however it is a tad worrying that kids end up going to schools where there are no white faces and then also end up living in an area where one community dominates. That can’t be good for social cohension.
If this is a Primary school why are three wearing the Hijab ?
But this is what we want so that is ok.
After the last census when white British Londoners were seen to be in the minority in some boroughs;
37% born outside of the UK
25% were born outside the EU
This was hailed by all politicians as great and wonderful.
Is there a percentage that we want to get to / stop at ? If 25% is great does that mean that 35 / 40 / 50% is better ?

Vaguely related to one of the points made earlier in the thread.
South today has an article about Swindon Taxi Drivers complaining about the need to have the tamperproof plates on their cars, as it "makes them a target for theft" (or harder for fake taxi drivers to operate, who knows).
So "Rana Khan" who is spokesman for the Swindon Taxi Association is complaining about lack of police action, whilst on mainstream BBC TV, clearly driving along without his fking seat belt on. A professional driver, on the telly, spokesman for a taxi association.
They don't give a fk about the law nor their safety or that of their customers.
I hope Rana gets the police interest he is keen to secure...

Taxi drivers are exempt from wearing their seat belts, albeit only when they are 'plying for work' or carrying passengers.

Only when they have passengers on board, not when plying for hire.They never wear them, and it isn't to do with them being private hire or taxi cab drivers.
