I might do if I get some free time, work is chaos at the moment.
reporting of incidents must be a lot more common these days as well.

There’s been 163 people died in police custody in the UK the last 10 years, 140 of them were white.
13 were black and the other 10 of various ethnic groups.

Indeed. I think some people think we are literally the USA and also probably watch too many filums as well.
 
I don’t think I’ve seen any footage of black and white People in the newspapers or the new channels protesting peacefully which the majority will of been, they decide to focus and constantly show black and white people fighting

Or they try to engineer a situation/narrative and don't like it when the black bloke doesn't want anything to do with the conversation :)

If you try to use Piers Morgan's interview 'style' as proof of anything other than his own need for attention, I'm afraid you've lost the argument.

Every time I hear him on the radio he's saying the stick he got as a player was because he is black, the reason he isn't a top flight manager is because he is black.
Personally I think it's because he is a complete dick.
In terms of what factors decide if you get a job or not someone wants to tell him that skin colour is way down the list.

I would wonder how much of the increase in hate crime is due to the difference in the way they are classified.

I remember a few years ago one of the younger lads that works for us was in town and a guy who he had never seen before launched himself out of a doorway and head butted him in the face for nothing breaking his nose.
If the same thing happened to today and the victim was not white this would now be reported as a hate crime and it would be listed as a racially motivated crime even if there is no evidence to support it.

I think another thing that might drastically skew the figures are social media posts that people report as offensive. Even if no crime has been committed the police now fill out a crime report and it goes down as an instance of hate crime.
I haven't actually looked into that properly just something I was reading a couple of months back. From what i can gather it's listed as a none criminal hate crime which sounds a bit bizarre, not sure how you can have a none criminal crime like but hey ho, crazy times.
From what i remember reading there are quite a lot of these which would skew the figures dramatically.
