There are issues about how the police feel about being convicted of institutional racism. That's an outrageous thing for anybody to say about Sir William Macpherson. Yes, sort of. There is an interesting relationship between how different groups of people see themselves, the way they perceive how other people perceive them and how all that gets played out through the media. We want to catch criminals like everybody else, but at the same time we don't want a disproportionate level of stopping and searching.
Black men are five times as likely to be stopped and searched.
But there are lots of other issues that other communities experience that are different from the the Afro-Caribbean community. One of the perceptions of the police is that they're unaccountable, and when it's time for them to be held to account they close ranks. I don't think Macpherson dealt with that. One of the solutions that was suggested in the first report was recruitment of more non-white officers. It's seen as a hostile environment.
