The authors of a controversial report into racism last night demanded a parliamentary probe into an MP who appeared to compare them to the Ku Klux Klan.
Last month the Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities said it found no evidence of institutional racism and criticised the way the term was applied, saying it should not be used as a catch-all phrase for any micro-aggression.
