Absolutley not, Police have to be seen making an effort to non white races and are sometimes over enthusiastic. Then its the white folk who are getting the bad deal. A black person is likely to get an oppurtunity to become a cop, than a a white.
Its an absolute disgrace. Why should they Police say in the recruitment campaigns,
We are activley recruiting Black and Asian officers
Or gay and Lesbian Officers
For this to be considered always fair neither Race or Sexual orientation should be mentioned.

Personally I couldn't say either way, but I'm 37 years old, white, but also only 5feet tall so when I'm out late at night (walking my dogs usually) I do get followed by the police quite often if they're in the area. I don't know if they're keeping an eye on me for safety, or if they're watching to see if I'm going to do something illegal because they think I'm a youth. (Ordinarily it wouldn't matter, but sometimes I'll have an "illegal" cigarette on the go! I once walked past a police van full of officers while smoking a joint and they never noticed.)

Well most white people for some reason [denial??] will say that they are as equally hard done by as ethnic minorites when it comes to the police..
I can tell you quite categorically that this is not true.. I am a Barrister and have represented individuals who have been subject to miscarriages of justice and for the most part, these indivduals are ethnic minorities.....

Bit hard to say. I'm white and they've screwed me over a few times. Probably do it to people of other races, maybe even worse to them. Dunno. Wouldn't say anyone gets a good deal from police in the uk. They're mostly useless.

Unquestionably. Im white and have never been hassled or stopped by the police, and my friend, who is black, has loads of times.
And remember that nazi video stuff that was uncovered by a newspaper a few years ago?

After the london terrorist attacks it was a fact that only arab looking men were stopped to be checked. I'm not saying whether that's good or bad. It's a fact.
