Women and ethnic minorities could get extra help during recession - Telegraph
The Press Association Minorities 'to get Government help'
Minorities to get extra help - News - Manchester Evening News
OF COURSE the 0bama ‘administration’ is watching this intently and are doing their utmost to engineer something similar over here in the USA.
“sigh”
I thought the ethnic minorities in the UK were whites?
“World Destroyed!” “Women and Minorities hurt most”!
shhhh! Nobody's supposed to know that!
It will likely be couched under the familiar banner of "we can't allow another minority Holocaust!" or something similar where anyone who dares object is instantly a 'racist' by definition. Dissent will be forcibly silenced by the usual terroristic methods as we are guilt-tripped into turning The United States of America into a third-world Socialist hellhole.
I'm guessing that this is not what our wonderful Veterans understood that they were fighting and dying for.
"sigh"
(Tory = conservative ). I wonder if recessions in the UK ever even happen under a Labour govt.
Undoubtedly, everything will be blamed on the Evil Conservatives, just as is done over here.
The Left operates in very similar ways in Great Britain as they do here in the USA; they may just be slightly more honest about who they really are and what they are wanting to accomplish in the UK.
It's awfully nice to win the Lottery without even having to go out and buy a ticket, isn't it?
Just some white dhimmis paying the Jizya tax. Nothing to see here. Move along. Move along.
How is this any different from race based discrimination? Now don’t call me “racist”, I’m not white I’m Indian.
Only a racist could say this about culturally isolated white kids.
Britain is going down the drain. The only question is when will the toilet stop flushing.
Wow, this lack of even-handedness, and Nu-Labour wonders why people are turning to the BNP....
(as posted to the Daily Mail)
Labour, like left-wingers the world over, are vicious race-baiters at the core. They will cheerfully break society down into interest groups for political profit.
We’re not standing for it. Affirmative Action is blatantly wicked and discriminatory - as bigoted as the Jim Crow laws..
You wouldn’t put a water fountain up marked “For Whites Only” - but Labour are happy to put a paying job up marked “For Black/Ethnic Minority Only” - and then expect you to praise them for doing it.
The Left are race-thugs. Stop voting for these bigots.
“’Employment levels amongst ethnic minority workers fell by 10 percentage points in the 1990s recession - much worse than rest of the country.”
That sounds desperate, but did those employment levels fall because of the ethnicity of the people, or was it that employment levels in certain areas fell which happened to have a lot of minorities in them? Or did they tend to fall in certain areas of the economy that happened to have a lot of ethnic minority workers in them? If that is so (and I suspect it is) they should be targeting their efforts on the areas and the regions rather than the ethnicity of the workers, if they should be doing it at all.
“’Just think of the waste of human potential. Whole communities were abandoned, families where no one then worked for generations.’”
In other words, recessions are bad. Yes we knew that. That doesnt justify awarding certain sections of the populace special protection against them, and certainly not on a racial basis.
“But the Government’s focus on minorities drew criticism from Conservative MPs, who warned it risked entrenching division.”
How can people not see the blindingly obvious truth of this? Are the “leaders” of the ethnic minorities completely stupid, or what?
No, whites are the oppressed ethnic majority.
It isn’t. Positive discrimination is still discrimination. Two wrongs do not make a right.
