All demonisations are equal, but some demonisations are more equal than others
Don't call migration a threat to Britain, says EHRC chief
The new head of the equalities watchdog has attacked those who describe migration as a risk to Britain.
The new head of the equalities watchdog has attacked those who describe migration as a risk to Britain.
Mary-Ann Stephenson, the chairman of the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC), used her first major intervention since taking the job at the beginning of December to warn against the demonisation of immigrants.
Dr Stephenson is being disingenuous here as the demonisation of rich people appears to be okay, as is the demonisation of an essential trace gas in the atmosphere -
Dr Stephenson is a Left-wing economist who called for a wealth tax last year.
As chairman of the Women’s Budget Group, she signed an open letter to Rachel Reeves, the Chancellor, which urged her to ensure the rich were “taxed more on their assets” to fund net zero schemes.
As ever we see posh demonisation and vulgar demonisation. Or maybe we could adapt George Orwell -
All demonisations are equal, but some demonisations are more equal than others.

Recent news suggests one should be sceptical about leftie ladies claiming the title "Dr".
dearieme - if that's Dame Ann Limb, she seems to be an example worth remembering. Apparently her MA claim is also 'inaccurate'.
I suppose Cruel People will now refer to her as Lame Ann Dim.
The new head of the equalities watchdog has tut-tutted at those who describe migration as a risk to Britain.
There, corrected.
Nurse: Dr the patient slipping away fast!
Dr: What's he dying of?
Nurse: Barbiturate poisoning Dr, what shall we do?
Dr: Give him a big dose of barbiturate! Quick!
