/// Our major cities are majority ethnic minority and yet the police force remains stubbornly white. ///

Since we now have a huge influx of 'WHITE' Eastern Europeans in our cities, is Ex Chief superintendent Dal Babu, suggesting it is a colour problem rather than just an ethnic minority one?

Some rather confused thinking in this Post

the so-called 'majority ethnic minority' in certain cities are British citizens.

The /huge influx of 'WHITE' Eastern Europeans/ are not.

So in issues of the police reflecting our society, visitor workers (who may turn out to be a transient or temporary phenomenon) are hardly as relevant as British people.
What a shame he has decided to quit after all that time. By the news item it looks as if he made a difference.
I guess his action must be to "improve" this ratio he is concerned about.
"the so-called 'majority ethnic minority' in certain cities are British citizens."

yeah , but how many actually consider themselves British....its just tag of convenience for many of them.

Not really. it can never 'just' be that - because by definition it is a legal status whether you like it or not. And their definition of what being British means may differ to yours or mine, but it still has legal and practical significance.

So the point remains that, regardless of your subjective and unquantified opinions about their attitudes or perceptions of their 'Britishness', as British citizens, mostly born here, they are far more relevant to the make-up of our police force than transient /'WHITE' Eastern Europeans/
