The Latest News from Diversityland

David Davis, MP for the fine town of Monmouth, dissed the brothers yesterday. You would think that pointing out that a policy which excluded people on the basis of their skin colour was racist was completely obvious, but alas not in the Vibrant Land of Diversity we now inhabit. Note also the classic whinge that by telling them the truth he "disrespected" them. Will Davis soon be the victim of a drive-by shooting from a Panda car, one wonders?

Anyway, back to the article. The BBC is clearly sympathetic to the grievance mongers in their use of headline: "MP defends police race criticism". This is a classic BBC dodge - it suggests very strongly that Davis was wrong and has been forced to defend his actions, whereas in fact he spoke the completely bloody obvious to a bunch of cossetted single-issue fanatics. The average man on the Clapham Omnibus can see this, but the extremists in the BPA and the BBC cannot, or will not, so the whole sorry saga continues.
