Labour report backs all-black shortlists | Politics | The Observer

The Guardian reveals that a report - commissioned by Harriet Harman (deputy leader, NuLabour) - recommends that restrictions be placed on white people being able to stand for parliament in up to 100 constituencies, for up to 20 years. All-black (or asian) 'shortlists' of candidates must be imposed on the electorate, in order to correct a perceived shortfall in the ethnic balance of parliament.

The report is presumably impeccably researched and completely impartial. Its author is one Simon Woolley, who runs something called "Operation Black Vote". Ah.. right... so no preconceptions THERE then

But in any case, does anyone actually agree with this? is reverse racism/racism acceptable for politics? (this also goes hand in hand with white men being rejected by police in favor of women and minority groups for the sake of balancing the required quota)

Racisim, normal or reversed, shouldn't Be acceptable in any form if you ask me. America is supposed to be a nation united, not divided.

Whatever label you want to put on it, it's still racism, and still wrong.
People should be chosen for positions based on abilities, qualifications, etc. but not race.

Who cares if the white man is more qualified and more suited for the job, he's not black and therefore doesn't deserve the job.

Makes perfect sense.

Lets elect someone less competent to a political position, because we feel bad for a perceived imbalance in race, which is unimportant anyways.
