[QUOTE="EqualityNonNegotiable, post: 170192, member: 31762"] I agree that we should be able to have a civil debate regardless of differing opinions. Some subjects may be emotive but I believe it's an important skill for a lawyer to present their view in a logical manner. Therefore, I have a few questions regarding your post. I'll start with the biggest one. [I]"In any case, there is still the question of why a VS demographic should be [B][I]artificially[/I][/B] made to represent a wider population."[/I] Firstly, just to clarify, does your statement rely on the word 'artificially'? If so, why would the VS demographic require an 'artificial' representation of the wider population? How do you define or measure artificial nature of this measurement? To put it bluntly - are you suggesting that the percentage of the White British candidates who meet the firm's criteria is disproportionately higher than that of other ethnic groups? Hypothetical simplified example - 50% White population 50% Other. White candidates 25% meet the criteria. Other 5% meet the criteria. Is the example above somewhat representative of what you meant by artificial representation? [/QUOTE]
