The good reverend was totally unable to understand why the police were questioning him about his ethnic origins on the phone and quite reasonably refused to cooperate. He was not exactly dead chuffed either when required to give his age!
'Diversity' has struck again.
Either there was a burglary or there was not. Why should there be such petty prying into a victim of crime? Of course, this information could then have been passed onto the legions of bureaucrats desperate to get at such titbits to justify their hardworking but essentially useless existence.
The 'diversity police' appear to have taken over the real police!
