The new police guidelines are meant to be selective, ie they won't be releasing those details for ALL suspects. Obvious consequence: Only the type of crime reports which the RW press are guaranteed to foam at the mouth over will include a nationality/ethnicity component. Unbelievably sinister!

Guardian headline: New guidance for UK police on releasing suspects’ ethnicity and migration status Disclosure of migration status, and ethnicity, could help keep peace ‘where there are high levels of disinformation’

Why release suspects' ethnicity? Ethnicity does not mean that the suspect is not a British citizen. All this will do is incite more racism as we all know that the press doesn't put headlines up when the perpetrators are white.

‘High profile’ tad vague. Depends what the police are told by labour or tory scum. The police are not independent of politics

Totally agree. Farage has won. Lynching is normalised

Very sinister indeed. Who decides which crimes this will apply to? Who on earth would trust a Reform government to provide a true representation of perpetrators ethnicities rather than one that suits their agenda.

They say "high profile" crimes but as soon as Fartage hears a low profile crime's happened he and his goons will make it high profile, with the help of the BBC, until he gets what he wants

They should either do it for everyone or none or it will just feed the monster!
