"In the years since Macpherson, the priorities and etiquette of British policing have been entirely reorganised to emphasise the commitment of the force (sorry, 'service') to anti-racism. Rather than ignoring allegations of racism, the police have gone out actively trawling for them, using Macpherson's sweeping definition of a racial incident as 'any incident which is perceived to be racist by the victim or any other person'. This ever-expanding definition accounts for most of the reported increases in 'hate crimes'."
