Across the board, people are looking at the problem, but simply not changing anywhere near fast enough.

Human rights are not worthy of the name if they do not protect the people we don't like as well as those we do.

We need more male black teachers, tempting them with extra cash if necessary.

You can't say 'because we decide we're different then we need a different set of laws.

Prison service vans that travel 90 miles to take a prisoner 90 yards; paedophiles free to leer at children in the very parks where they have committed horrific crimes.

To me there's nothing different in principle with a Catholic adoption agency, or indeed Methodist adoption agency, saying the rules in our community are different and therefore the law shouldn't apply to us. Why not then say sharia can be applied to different parts of the country? It doesn't work.

I don't want to have people brought in simply because they are black or Asian.
