No 10 race report tries to normalise white supremacy, say UN experts

Human rights specialists urge government to reject race commission's controversial findings

A controversial report into racial disparities in the UK attempts to normalise white supremacy" and the government should reject its findings, UN human rights experts have warned.

The report by the Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities, published at the end of March, concluded that while racism and racial injustice still existed, geography, family influence, socioeconomic background, culture and religion all had a greater impact on life chances. The report said it did not find evidence of institutional racism in the areas it examined, such as policing and health.
