British Justice Has Been Two-Tier for Decades

by Laurie Wastell
29 March 2025 7:00 AM

The recent decision by the Sentencing Council to make pre-sentence reports – which have been shown to reduce the likelihood of a custodial sentence – mandatory for ethnic minority offenders, while not for others, has understandably sparked outrage. Aimed at ‘addressing’ alleged disparities between the sentencing of ethnic minorities and whites, the new rules are two-tier by design. Sentencing Council chairman Lord Justice William Davis has admitted that “[w]hy this disparity exists remains unclear”, meaning there’s no reason to believe it’s down to unfairness. But for our equality-obsessed overlords, if a neutral system produces an unequal outcome, it is necessary to put a heavy thumb on the scales to try to ‘correct’ it. War is peace; inequality is equality.

Yet while the political heat the Sentencing Council is now facing is well earned, the fact remains that two-tier justice in Britain is really nothing new. Indeed, the UK has arguably had a two-tier sentencing regime in practice for more than a quarter of a decade, ever since the introduction into British law of the concept of ‘hate crime’.

“By contrast, how many have even heard of the heinous – and very definitely racially targeted – murder of Kriss Donald, a white Scottish 15 year-old, by a gang of five Pakistani men?”

Laurie Wastell’s learned exposition tells me all I need to know.

15-Minute mandatory e-learning for British Justice, the Hate Crime Scrutiny Panel and all other worthies cited in the article – “Equity: The Thief of Human Potential...”

“…If there’s anything worse than unfairness, it is make-believe fairness.”

Take a look at the demographic of the image accompanying the article and draw your own conclusions as to why there’s two-tier justice in Britain.

The ridiculous legalities around ide.tory politics and ‘hate crime’ have created one huge moral hazard type of situation. The outcome is that minorities stating grievances is incentivised and rewarded and, in turn, taking any form of action against a minority group is disincentivised. For the majority, the converse is true. It is not only the law but also the nature of political and MSM discourse in Britain that encourages the above. Hence, the same two tier phenomenon now pervades schools, universities, employers, as well as the judicial system. It has become a self fulfilling prophecy and one that is growing.

All predicted by Enoch Powell 57 years ago. For his troubles, he was promptly sacked by the Fake Conservatives. Plus ca change.

This country wasn’t a nirvana in the late 20th century, but the positives far far outweighed the negatives. From the Election of Blair onwards, this country (under the Uniparty (L/C) has nose-dived in every area.

We have seemingly sought out conflict and decline when we could so easily had progress and prosperity. Mass immigration has undoubtedly been the fuel for many of the problems. And yet there are only a handful of politicians willing to say this now, even when the evidence is clear.

History shows us that it has always been much easier to destroy rather than build (the Left always excel at this). It looks like we are currently going through just such a phase.

On a tour around the Royal Courts of Justice, our learned guide informed us that the pay for State prosecutors and Judges was low compared to barristers in the civil courts eg the brightest went to the civil courts.
The legal profession know this and so do most of the Public. What is happening now is the PM (in my opinion a high functioning Aspie) is trying to redress this balance and push his friends into well paid positions for life before he gets voted out.

I was in high school on a council estate in the 90s, there was a black kid and an asian kid in the year. We took the piss out of them. Martin because he was lanky, Vishial because he was fat.
The colour of their skin literally didn’t even occur to us. This in the very definition of a “white working class” area.

30 years later, everything is said to be about race.

Progress eh?

2-tier “justice is an enabling strategy. It isn’t designed to promote tolerance and acceptance – it’s designed to promote division and conflict as part of The Great Replacement.

This will not end peacefully. The establishment is scared,which is why the Stockport protesters/rioters/tweeters received such over the top sentences.
Professor Mike Betz thinks we will have some sort of low grade civil war here within 5 years. I think it is already here.Stockport was the opening skirmish.

A civil war requires the presence of two sets of elites who are opposed to each other. Such as the Crown and Parliament in the 17th century.

Today, there is no division in the political class. Farage & Co are a poor reward for those millions who want change from the unchanging political class who, as it has been put, live in villages in cities and are even more parochial than actual villagers.

Stop funding all sectarian groups and the problems they currently cause will be materially reduced.

I would have thought offenders for all the crimes mentioned had bad thoughts about their victims. I cannot conceive of a murder where the culprit did not want to cause harm to the victim!

Two Tier justice was introduced when immigrants and their first born were even allowed to hold public office in our country.

That’s the terrifying question. You’d have to be blind not to see how deliberate and relentless this state-driven persecution of indigenous white people is, but I can’t see how we stop and reverse it. Feels completely overwhelming…

Their has always been a two tier (in)justice system. It used to be between the rich, or privileged, and the poor.
Now there is a multi tiered system. the rich/poor still exists, but other tiers have been introduced with straight White males being treated more severely than all others.

What has happened to little Britain? It really is a mess. When I watched Brett Bauer’s interview with Elon Musk and the billionaires helping him address gov’t efficiency, I could not help but think how terribly behind little britain is. In a word, it is a mess.

Britain is has become too dangerous for ordinary people to say what they think. We are being attacked by our own government, institutions, police and judiciary. It is no longer safe for us. I’m becoming increasingly desperate to leave even though it is the land of my father’s and I have forsaken them. It fills me with utter misery and despair for my children. The good people of Reform are my only hope.
