Many of these incidents don't appear to have been followed up.

We haven't seen an official change, for example, to the habit the police have formed of not recording ethnicity on charge sheets. This is a clear abnegation of their duty to the public, whom they should be defending and informing of threats to their safety.

This is making things worse, not better, for anybody trying to come to this country. For want of a better phrase - and no doubt contravening the current ludicrous rules on use of the English language - minorities are now all tarred with the same brush, which is unfair on those who are here legally and working to better themselves.

Can anybody give me a good reason for not reviling certain minorities who have come here and caused such trouble? And yet, I don't - I want everyone to be treated in the same just and balanced way, whatever their race.

We are a tolerant country, but our patience is waning, and the government had better not forget it.
