Trust the Daily Express to lead with this ridiculous headline. However, I think the story deserves more attention. This Equality Bill seems a little unnecessary and will breed resentment of the very groups it is trying to support. I appreciate that the pay gap between white men and other groups is often without foundation but is this really the answer?

This is a typical right wing spin on a measure taken for Employers to able to hire minorities if they specifically want or need to, but is no way a directive to do so carte blanche as I understand it.

I have a friend who tried to join the Metropolitan Police but was forced to train in a different force because they wanted more ethnically diverse recruits.
It's crazy, and personally I don't think it does a lot to aid relationships between different cultures.
