‘Some British media outlets ran stories in April 2025 on how a regional Police Force (West Yorkshire) has put ‘applications from white Brits on hold’ and how the Chief Constable wants to discriminate against white candidates (Foreman, 2025; Bolton & Martin, 2025; Siddell, 2025). However, as may be inferred from the inconsistent tense, only a very limited version of positive discrimination is permitted under British law – and the facts of the story are not what may be, perhaps intentionally, implied from the phrasing used.’
