Welsh councils have been accused of being institutionally racist because "statistics" (what they are or the actual data they show is never explained) show that ethnic minorities fare "significantly worse" than whites in terms of their quality of housing.
These sound like hollow and unfounded and downright non-sensical hollow platitudes to me, but it would be interesting to see the actual data and what it truly shows rather than hearing the warped interpretation of some self-righteous liberal. It would also be interesting to see if the difference was truly "significant" as the article says. The term is always bandied about to show that report findings are "true" but the real truth is that there is a complex process and a formula that has to be undergone to decide if the results of your study are scientifically significant, involving chi and squares. And in 95% of cases the results AREN'T significant which gives any conclusions drawn total invalidity. So I wonder how significant this report really is.
