Labour says 1 in 7 Company Directors should be black or from an ethnic minority. Whatever happened to a meritocracy?

So the best person is nearly always a white man?

Some years ago I read an article which said that any company over a certain size in the U.S. had to employ at least one token black man. This led to the hapless black employee being constantly referred to by some as "Token"

you are getting mixed up between targets and quotas I think.
No sane person believes it is only white middle aged blokes have the talent, it needs gently bringing out, and that is what targets draw out.
There is a whole host of prejudice, status quo, and policy (ie paternity/maturity/childcare that determine the make up of a board. Not merit,why shouldn't we target to change that situation?

If I run a business why should I not be allowed to appoint the best person for the job regardless of colour, race etc?
