Daily Mash on top form

From The Daily Mash:

White air passengers are routinely stopped and searched by customs officials simply to ensure the right racial ‘mix’ of travellers are being approached, a report reveals today.

It found staff searching for illegal goods at Gatwick Airport selected white passengers to balance the numbers against black and other ethnic minorities they suspected to help avoid race discrimination complaints.

Details of the practice are exposed in one of two highly critical reports by Professor Henry Brubaker of the Institute for Studies, who said it was unlawful and must stop.

Tom Logan, shoe salesman, told reporters that after returning from a holiday in Kenya he was held in Arrivals for eight hours, having his bags searched again each time another plane landed.

Yes that's rights. It would be much easier to stop being racist at the root. Or even better stop being anti immigrant. Both forms of protection of unearned incomes in the end.

My best mate from school ended up being deported as an illegal American c.1995, despite being London born to an English mother and whose only living relatives were in England. Long story but a low level Home Office bod told me during casual conversation they they liked to deport the odd whitey "just to even things up a bit".
