    Miss White Great Britain

    Black beauty contest criticised

    The contest was open to black and mixed-race women
    beauty contest which only allows black and mixed-race women to enter has been criticised for encouraging segregation rather than integration.
    Organisers of Miss Black Britain said the contest was essential because of the lack of young black role models.

    The Commission for Racial Equality said it was not sure the contest was the right way to integrate the black community.

    Eighteen women took part in the finals in Manchester at the weekend.

    How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

        "Miss Great Britain has been dominated by a lot of white girls for a long time and many judges or even the contestants who go ahead for it are mainly white," she (Aneka Johnson, event organiser) said.

        The population statistics for Great Britain have been dominated by a lot of white people for a long time. Am I allowed to say that?

          Surely that is racist? If we had Miss White Great Britain, we would be hauled up in front of the judge!!!! FFS equality works both ways...

            Only as racist as the "National Black Police Association".

            Just as an exercise, check out how many "home" pages they have.

                  Always the same old usual suspects bleating on about reverse racism.

                  Feck me, isn't there anything to whinge about than the injustices of being white in today's society.

                    Don't forget the injustices of being a man. And middle class.
