Dawn Butler: Labour needs to do better, and the FordeReport is the opportunity DawnButlerBrent writes that Labour's response to the inquiry findings was not good enough
that senior staff in the Party HQ had apparently mocked me for raising issues of racism within the Party.
This is not easy to acknowledge. I understand the resistance, but it is vital to acknowledge if we are to improve and move forward as a Party. We need to be our best selves as we get ready to govern the country.Don’t get me wrong, the Labour Party has often been at the forefront of tackling racism, we have more ethnic minority MPs than ever and in 2007, I became the first black woman minister to speak from the despatch box in the House of Commons.
Miraculously, these staff members remain Labour Party members and some are working in senior positions in the Labour movement. The whole disciplinary proceedings are a factional tool – and so any form of discrimination can be accused depending on the perpetrator and their factional allegiance.
