Catherine West MP speaking at the Crouch End Black Lives Matter march and demo

Racism is real, and it is the lived experience of so many in this country. According to the Race Disparity Unit, black people are nine times more likely to be stopped and searched than white people. Additionally, it is deeply concerning that MBRRACE-UK has said that black mothers are more than four times more likely to die in pregnancy or childbirth than white women. The Timpson review of school exclusions also found that black children are more likely to be excluded than white children. Though we have made progress in reducing disparities, evidence shows that we still have a long way to go to achieve equality.

I can assure you I will continue working for a future free of racism and bigotry.
