LABOUR MPs, campaigners and trade unionists lined up today to slam the “insulting” and “gaslighting” government-commissioned report which claimed institutional racism did not exist in Britain.

The Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities report said that Britain was no longer a country where the “system is deliberately rigged against ethnic minorities.”

Yet it said that geography, family, socio-economic background, culture and religion are stronger influences on life chances than race.
