Editing Racial profiling (section)

===United Kingdom===
Racial issues have been prevalent in the UK for a long time. For example, following the arrival of Windrush migrants from the Caribbean and West Indies after the Second World War, racial tensions began to flare up in the country - see the [[1958 Notting Hill race riots|Notting Hill Race Riot]]. The most recent statistics from the [[Migration Observatory at the University of Oxford]] in 2019 show that people born outside of the UK made up 14% of the UK's population or 9.5 million people. Black Britons make up 3% of the population and Indian Britons occupy 2.3% of the population with the remainder being largely EU or North American migrants.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Vargas-Silva |first1=Carlos |title=Dr |url=https://migrationobservatory.ox.ac.uk/resources/briefings/migrants-in-the-uk-an-overview/ |website=migrationobservatory.ox.ac.uk |publisher=The Migration Observatory at the University of Oxford |access-date=10 June 2021}}</ref>

An increase in knife crime in the capital in recent decades has led to an increase in police [[stop and search]] powers. However, there are concerns that these powers lead to discrimination and racial profiling with statistics showing that there were 54 stop and searches for every 1000 black people compared to just 6 for every 1000 white people.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.ethnicity-facts-figures.service.gov.uk/crime-justice-and-the-law/policing/stop-and-search/latest |website=gov.uk |publisher=UK Home Office |access-date=10 June 2021|title=Stop and search }}</ref> Following social dissatisfaction and claims of [[institutional racism]], the [[Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities]] published ''The report of the Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities'' in 2021, finding overall that there was no institutional [[racism in the United Kingdom|racism in the UK]].<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-report-of-the-commission-on-race-and-ethnic-disparities |website=gov.uk |publisher=Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities |access-date=10 June 2021|title=The report of the Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities |date=28 April 2021 }}</ref> The report and its findings were criticised by many including the United Nations working group who argued that the report 'attempts to normalise white supremacy' and could 'fuel racism'.<ref>{{cite news |title=Race report: UN experts say conclusions could 'fuel racism' |work=BBC News |date=19 April 2021 |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-56800763 |access-date=10 June 2021}}</ref>
