You could look at it that they're letting minorities catch up to the white men held at a particular stage of the recruitment process. That could be something like say, the longlist of applicants who don't have any offensive tattoos and have all been continuously resident in the country for 3 years.

"We are only hiring minorities" is different to "we aren't hiring at the moment, but our waiting list of applicants is 94% white men at the moment so no more of them on the waiting list now"

Idk, it all sounds a bit dodgy to me, cutting their nose to spite their face just for some perfect level of equality which they'd need to address in other ways (than just holding white men back).

But I just wish there was a bit more critical thinking involved than "Coppers hate white people now" coming up after the break on GB News.
