Trevor Phillips , British politician
- "Racism is a disease of the uneducated, unenlightened and socially backward - football hooligans, British National Party supporters, policemen."
- "Across the board, people are looking at the problem, but simply not changing anywhere near fast enough."
- "I ask questions, and a large part of my life has been spent asking questions of Ken Livingstone."
- "I don't want to have people brought in simply because they are black or Asian."
- "There's no secret about my ambition, I do not want to go into the House of Commons. My only real political interest is in London and if one day I'm in a position to run for mayor, then terrific."
- "We need more male black teachers, tempting them with extra cash if necessary."
