I believe it is dangerous to publish only one side of any events which have taken place. You will remember the Tomlinson incident. Until contradictory evidence arose there was only one side of the story available - that Mr Tomlinson had died of natural causes and that there was no prior contact with the police.<br />The LAS investigates complaints against staff rigorously. I don't know whether the ethnicity of complainants is collected. I haven't seen any figures, but I will have a root around when I have an opportunity. If they are available, it would be interesting to see whether they support or refute your racism hypothesis.<br />As I said in my post http://wp.me/p1uaw9-2B there are two questions which should be answered.<br />...the Appointments Commission states;<br /><br />"Our partnership approach ensures we work closely with individual organisations to identify their specific needs, which are then reflected in our recruitment strategies."<br /><br />So has the LAS specified that the non-executive directors should include BME, disabled, younger, or older members? If the answer is yes, then where are they? And if no, then why not?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
