P.M. Mrs. May ordered an extensive analysis of public sector data to reveal how race affects the treatment of Britons by the Government Departments. The initial objective is to identify and eliminate the factors holding back the white working class and the ethnic minorities. The examples of disparity show black people are seven times more likely to be the target of ‘stop and search’ by the police and children from the white working class community are less likely to go to universities. The African Caribbean children are three times more likely to be excluded from the school permanently.
Mrs. May expressed that the government she will lead will stand up against injustice and inequality. The audit will reveal the racial disparity stretching across public services and provide the information how race, geographical location and gender relates e.g. hospital waiting list or university admission. Though the effect of ‘haves and have not’ of course, is well known. In addition family and cultural values, children feeling ‘belong’ play significant role as shown by Indian community. Following Brexit she has united the divided party, the government and hope will unite the people to make all round progress for Britain.
