I have a novel idea for all political partys how about best candidates for the Job shortlists, that is the fairest way and completly without discrimination.

Isn't it funny! Odd and peculiar, too! When it suits New Labour to discriminate they call it "postive discrimition". When some other organisation seeks to defend practices which the New Labour regime objects to, they denounce it for all its worth.

For instance, the Roman Catholic Church's, Orthodox Church's and Traditional Anglicanism's stance on male only ordination is not seen as a religious belief, but something to be got at. However, they promote their own views with vigour!

I too would like to see more representation of ethnic minorities in Parliament. But I just prefer to see them as representatives not some token to a "cause". Those already there have done it mainly through their own abilities. Only a prejudiced person will deny someone their abilities.
