They quote the law, which they are obliged to support their members from. You're struggling here mate, the law is clear. You're wrong, plain and simple.

Re: Covert Racism! shhhhhhh
I think this is the written Law:
http://www.statutelaw.gov.uk/content...tDocId=2059995
See section 3: Meaning of “racial grounds", “racial group" etc.
“racial group" means a group of persons defined by reference to colour, race, nationality or ethnic or national origins, and references to a person’s racial group refer to any racial group into which he falls.
So the act does not define black as white but white as a shade of black; it defines various forms of discrimination as all being racial discrimination.
Why this was neccessary, I can not imagine. Perhaps the bill passed late one Christmas night.

Except the infamous WillBlack (and all non-English), of course.
At least I now see why the English are so ready to shout "racist" at the slightest instance of discrimination regardless of its nature - their dialect of English has been legislatively corrupted.
