According to a police chief, he wants to employ more policemen from ethnic minorities and discriminate against white job candidates.
West Yorkshire Police Chief Constable John Robins has continuously advocated for legislative changes throughout the country to increase the proportion of ethnic minorities in his force.
Mr Robins, an officer for West Yorkshire Police since 1990, was selected as its chief in 2019 and has overseen the dramatic new changes to its recruitment policy in recent years.
The force, which is currently putting applications from white Brits on hold, said it is accepting them ‘all year round’ from ‘under-represented groups’ such as black and Asian candidates.
According to The Telegraph, a whistleblower who exposed the recruiting process alteration said that applicants from various backgrounds were being divided into tiers.
Black and Asian candidates are alleged to have been put into the ‘gold’ tier of being seriously under-represented in the police, while Southeast Asians were given the ‘silver’ tier.
Meanwhile ‘white others’, including applicants from Britain, Ireland and Eastern Europe were dropped into the lower ‘bronze’ tier.
Supporting the decision, a spokesperson for Mr Robins told MailOnline the police chief stood by his push to prioritise minority hires.
The spokesperson said: ‘The Chief Constable’s position has not changed. It is a national view that he holds.’
The action has increased concerns that it would lead to positive discrimination, which is illegal in the UK.
However, Mr Robins has previously maintained that it aided in the recruitment of Catholics into the Northern Ireland Police Service after the Good Friday Agreement.
He said in 2023: ‘It worked in terms of religion in Northern Ireland. We’ve tried really, really hard over many decades, especially in the last five to 10 years, but there’s just systemic issues around applications.
‘I think the time has now come that legislation should change so that we should [use] positive discrimination.’
Conservative MP Neil O’Brien labelled the force’s hiring policy as ‘racist’.
He told The Telegraph: ‘What West Yorkshire police are doing with their racist hiring policies and division of different ethnic groups is skirting the edge of the law. It is no surprise to discover they have been pushing for the law to be changed to legalise these racist hiring policies.
‘With gun crime in West Yorkshire at a record high, many people might think local police might have more important things to be focusing on.
Former Prime Minister Liz Truss also said on Thursday that Britain has a ‘serious problem’ with ‘anti-white discrimination’.
Posting on X, she said: ‘Britain has a serious problem with police leadership being ideologically captured and pursuing anti-white discrimination. Ministers should have to answer for this and take back the powers to do so.’
The move comes just two months since West Yorkshire Police were seen to have spent £1.4 million ‘patronising’ the public with diversity staff.
MailOnline reported how the force employs 19 diversity, equality and inclusion (DEI) staff members and spends £361,000 of public money training them.
Last year, West Yorkshire Police also came under fire after they arrested a teenage girl when she said she looked like her ‘lesbian nana’.
The 16-year-old girl, who also suffers from spinal disability scoliosis, had been driven to her home in Leeds by officers after attending the city’s Gay Pride festivities.
She had been there with her sister before allegedly making a ‘homophobic’ remark.
The girl was subsequently hauled away ‘screaming’ by West Yorkshire Police officers in the early hours of the morning having been arrested on suspicion of a ‘homophobic public order offence’.
Footage of the incident, filmed by the girl’s mother, went viral on TikTok – provoking a frenzied backlash online, as the officers were accused of heavy-handedness while leaving the girl cowering under the stairs in her own home.
The teenager, who has not been named, was held in custody for 20 hours after the incident and then released.
The West Yorkshire force later confirmed it would take no further action against the teenager and released her from her bail.
We shouldn’t be paying this police chief so much to allay his supposed guilt complex, hence he should be fired.
He clearly requires mental care, which should be covered by his pension. Instead of wasting money on nonsense like this, we need someone interested in solving actual crimes.
Some of these positions are going to persons with little experience, no qualifications, and dubious, unreliable references. It also appears that reading and writing in English is not a requirement. Next, we’ll discover that supposedly low-cost airlines will hire pilots who say they have bike riding skills.
The issue is that anti-white racism is pervasive in the UK, and those who engage in it ought to face legal action and be imprisoned, and the disease of wokeism has achieved its most elevated levels.
Our politicians have turned against us, and it’s time we took action since this is the direction our nation is taking—openly discriminating against white British people in favour of non-white minority groups!
