So where are all the black police officers? ►http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2012/jan/04/where-are-black-police-officers
Thirteen years ago, at the end of the Stephen Lawrence inquiry, there were four black officers at the level of chief constable or their assistants ("chief officers"). I am told there were nine three years ago but that there is none at all now. Nor are there any at or just below chief officer level. In the wake of such a damning inquiry, I would have expected to see a broad wave of black officers at or above the level of commander, as is the wave of women there now.
