However, we\u2019re pioneers around the recognised Science of Diversity, Equality and Inclusion that led to far better productivity, helping GDP growth of any nation, by avoiding the economics of bust and boom; which has plagued all Western economic development since the 20th century \u2013 because all economic growth is based on trade Sadly, our warning wasn\u2019t entirely in turn embraced by the political class from time to time. This has allowed a culture of institutional racism to flourish, leading to the death of Steven Lawrence on 22 April 1993, as the perpetrators had never ever recognised their own sins. The Macpherson Report, conducted by the Labour Government at the time, had finally recognised that \u201cInstitutional Racism\u201d existed in many organisations in 1999. This was the same year that Doreen Lawrence had received her first Award (EMMA), on National TV for campaigning for justice, over the years, against the odds that led in 2018 to Prime Minister Theresa May, announcing a Steven Lawrence Day The fact that British Ethnic Minorities could state experiences, around Racism due to Colonialism from a previous imperial legacy, had meant that the National Front, as a Far Right political movement wasn\u2019t too far away. The fact they had rebranded their image as The BNP (British National Party), and even went beyond winning just local council seats in 2009, by gaining 2 seats in the European Parliament was a shock to everyone at the time. This is where EMMA, with the assistance of colleagues, at The Ad agency \u201cSaatchi & Saatchi\u201d; undertook an extensive lobbying campaign through print Ads & TV Ads to counter the rise of the Far Right. This was taken lightly by the political establishment, who assumed it was a blimp, not realising its potential growth EMMA was proven right then and now, regardless of our previous successes in the past, to limit the Far Right growth in Britain. They had transformed themselves, with the ultimate defeat of the BNP, into the English Defence League (EDL). The strategy wasn\u2019t to attack all Minorities, but to create a divide and rule policy similar to the Far Right in Nazi Germany, against the Jews. The target in Britain, and eventually, with the Far Right political growth was all Muslims. This didn\u2019t mean they hated Jews any less, but were happy to park that bus for now, so they could contend with this larger Minority group who were at times misplaced due to continual wars in the Middle East The fact that many Far Right groups have openly sprung out, like The \u201cFootball Lads Alliance\u201d, using the love of Football as a spring board to recruit even more followers is a dangerous precedent. Already, the Far Right have grown in power politically, in France, Germany, Italy, Hungry, Poland, Sweden, Holland, Greece and Austria with few countries embracing them within the Government. The fuel for the rise is blamed on Globalisation that has led to a rise in unemployment, but extremist politics based on Nationalism, is only a stepping stone for power against the present establishment. If parties don\u2019t take on board the need to promote, better \u2018Social Cohesion\u2019 to avoid creating \u2018Ghetto\u2019s\u2019 regardless of those Ethnic groups involved then resentment will in turn increase, leading to Racism, Extremism and Terrorism. The policy of divide and rule will only create, further economic instability, with Geo-politics taking an ugly turn.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have lobbied UK Parliamentarians publically & privately, for nearly 30 years over many issues, around politics, economics, cultural identity and education to name just a few.
