segregation

more than prayer is required
The ghettoising of our police forces is strange, disquieting and on-going. There seems to be an association for more or less every nationality, race and gender. The Met lists 16 including: Anglo-Italian, Greek, Chinese and South East Asian. They are all given about £500 plus help with office time and equipment.

Registered charity no. 1093518 -the National Black Police Association NBPA - is given preferential treatment. According to an annual account signed by Ali Dizaei in April 2008, it received £180,000 in the year 2006-7 from public funds, had total funding of £522,000 and spent £596,000. The accounts list all these few hundred thousands of pounds as other so we cannot tell where the money came from nor where it went. The auditors stated that they were: unable to form an opinion as to whether the financial statements- give a true and fair view of the charity's affairs.
