Black people account for 8% of deaths in custody, while making up only 3% of the population. But this is only the end point of a system that disproportionately suspects, arrests, convicts and imprisons BAME people

. We know little about the circumstances, and I fear that his family won’t be getting answers any time soon.

If we don't make marital racism illegal, things will never change. There is no excuse, in this day and age, to allow people of the same color to marry. It is a prime example of racism. It needs to come to an end. No exceptions. Only a racist would make an excuse not to.

Guardian, this is a bloody touchy topic! We know the USA has deep seated racial problems! Now the UK 🇬🇧 is stepping up to reveal their is a problem in the UK

AND I UNDERSTAND 70 % of the crime in LONDON and most of the drug and knife crime in the country ?

Always the victims But never the culprits

If people are committing crimes its irrelevant what bloody color they are

Adjusted for levels of crime, white people are most likely to die in Police custody or be killed by Police. More Black people die in custody because they commit 400% more crime than white people race-baiting for clicks is some disgusting shit

How come the media never tell us how many white youths are in Street gangs & how many whites stabbed black youths to death in gang fights in the last few years. It's always the black kids that get the blame & this is used as an excuse to stop & search more of them.

They should be in neither. We are at defcom 4!

Isn't only blacks though. Also Latino and other minorities.

Why include Mark Duggan in this. He was a violent gang criminal carrying an illegal gun when confronted by police. There is injustice in the criminal justice system, but Duggan's case wasn't one of them.

Just look at the state of these comments. Exemplification of the problem of white supremacy.

JUSTICE FOR JOY GARDNER metpoliceuk

We are dealing with such small numbers here that even one individual can sway it. Also note the link you added states 'white individual who has been arrested was about 25% more likely to die in custody than a black individual who had been arrested' why nothing on that?

Well you have to define it that way seeing as how black people are no more likely to be killed by the police than white people.

Sir Starmer has to answer for the injustice shown to the family of the late Ian Tomlinson.

At this point i feel The Guardian are fueling the race war

OSolance

Its worth mentioning that 13% of the Population are calssed as Ethnic, but they make up 27% of the Prison Population. Also that in the last 10 years in the UK 168 people have died in Custody in the UK - 143 were white 13 were black, remainder were of another race.

film of deaths in police custody In the U.K.

In Malaysia the INDIANS suffer the same fate mysteriously found dead in prison cells & gunned down in the streets mercilessly since the last decade .

A black iceberg against the white Titanic

Some of them are doing it for their own benefits too. Looting and burning of public properties in America or elsewhere cannot be justified. Strict action must me taken against those goons. In the name of Floyd they are looting iphones, Rolex, Playstations, nikes and what not.

But black people are still less likely to die i police custody than white people
